GATE DRIVE TRANSFORMER

GATE DRIVE TRANSFORMER

Most switching transformers can be gate drive transformers…. the name comes from the action of the transformer…. Current that flows through a MOSFET does so between the FET’s DRAIN and SOURCE…..how much current that flows is a function of the applied...

BASIC DESIGN OF AN AUTOTRANSFORMER

An autotransformer is just like a “regular” transformer in that it transforms one voltage, or current, or impedance to another…. The main difference is it does so without electrical isolation…the transformers most people are used to electrically isolate...
