In this power tip, I will discuss the design of clamping circuits for synchronous rectifier MOSFETs at a high switching frequency. where Np and Ns are the transformer’s primary and secondary windings, ...

This is a similar operation as performed by a clamper circuit. In fact, a TVS diode is considered a clamper. When the voltage returns to levels below the breakdown voltage, the TVS diode ceases to ...

These clamping devices contain a matrix of zinc oxide grains sandwiched between two metal plates which serve as electrodes. The boundaries between grains form diode junctions which allow current to ...
