This application note presents design techniques which improve TOPSwitch power supply operation through most AC mains transient surge voltages. Properly designed transformers, PC boards, and EMI ...

The rate of transient occurrences varies with every power system. Recent studies show that surges of 1kV or less are common — whereas 3kV surges are rare. Protecting against more frequent (internally ...

Reference [1] describes a process for the design of lightning protection that transforms the transient experienced by the components during the lightning test transient into the reference transients ...

What’s the difference between crowbarring and clamping in transient suppression? What are polymeric electrostatic discharge (ESD) suppressors? What are some optimal layout practices for circuit ...
