Zurich and Houston, Mar 11, 2025 - (JCN Newswire) - - Hitachi Energy announced today at CERAWeek additional major investments of more than $250 million USD by 2027 to expand global production of ...

Power-transformer designs minimize weight and cost based on three assumptions: (1) the power source is a sine wave, (2) the frequency is fixed, and (3) the voltage will not exceed a specified maximum.

Using a flyback topology to generate a high voltage is a common approach. The voltage can charge a capacitor for a high-energy pulse. Such an approach is used in defibrillator capacitors, photoflash ...
