How to Reduce Voltage Spikes and EMI in Flyback How to Size a Snubber Circuit for Flyback Converters

Your flyback converter is only as good as your transformer model. Get it wrong, you risk voltage spikes, unstable output, and EMI issues that don't show up until it's too late. In this video, Kirsch breaks down the core of flyback converter simulation, the transformer. You'll learn how to select the right transformer model in Allegro X, how to configure primary and secondary parameters, and why parasitic capacitance and leakage inductance matter far more than most engineers think. Learn the math behind flyback output voltage and the impact of duty cycle and turns ratio on performance.
