My five optional blogs are in and it’s time to cap it off with a (mandatory) final blog, adhering to my “one blog a day” cadence to ensure I can deliver in time. As this blog needs to be standalone, it will be a slightly abridged summary of the points…
At the start of the challenge I had just a bit of knowledge about flyback transformers and converters from briefly exploring them in class, but from the day i saw the challenge announcement, it piqued my interest and my curiosity went all in into researching…

What is Experimenting with Flyback Transformers?
Flyback transformers are used in switched-mode power supplies, converters, inverters, and much more. They are a unique device, They function as an isolated inductor, storing energy in every cycle. (A…
Introduction
This marks my initial post introducing myself to the Experimenting with Flybacks Transformers competition, generously sponsored by Bourns and Element14. Bourns, an established American electronics company with over 70 years of experience...
Introduction
We all start with an idea and a plan. I started with an inkling of what flyback transformers were about, having seen common chokes being used for isolated signal coupling, and I had an itch I wanted to scratch.
I wanted to see if I could...
Hello Everyone
This is my 3rd design challenge with e14 (I had withdrawn from the Ist one but I have done new research on it, which can be found in my preprint research papers list and 2-3 more would be added).
Thanks for organizing&nb...
Some of you requested the optional power adapter in your application forms.
We have them now and will be shipping them to the participants that had requested them.

What Is so special about a flyback transformer?
The simple answer is how energy is stored in the gap of its core. Basically, it is a coupled inductor with a gapped core. During every cycle, the input voltage is applied to its primary winding. Energy...
How do you go about experimenting with flyback transformers. I had someone contact me with that question. It sounds like a reasonable question to have a conversation about.
I have a wide view of the things you can do as an experiment for this element...
Do you know the answer to this question about flyback transfomers?
If you understood the question and answered (c), please read on. You are the talent I am looking for to participate in element14's Experimenting with Flyback Transformers program!
