ISOLATED AC CURRENT MONITOR
This circuit uses a small AC current transformer from Magnetek to produce an
isolated voltage proportional tothe AC current in the
primary winding. The transformer contains a single turn primary with a low
0.001-ohm resistance. It can easily handle 30 amps of AC current and provides
at least 500vac of isolation. With the components shown, the output AC voltage
is scaled so 1 amp of current produces 100mv of AC voltage.

Connect Line-Level Signal to Phono Input - The circuit does two
functions: signal level attenuation and inverse RIAA filtering. The signal
attenuation is needed to convert the 500 mV signal to 2.5 mV signal. The inverse-RIAA
filtering is needed to make the frequency response of the system flat (same
equalization that is used when music is transferred to vinyl in the studio). The
picture blow shows the frequency response of the ideal inverse-RIAA filter (added

Everything You Wanted to Know About Wideband Low Frequency Transformers -
11/23/00 EDN-Design Ideas ideband, low-frequency transformers are useful
components in various passive circuits, such as the return-loss bridge (Reference
1, Figure 2). Figure 1a shows a conventional transformer. If you connect the
transformer windings differently, you can configure a transmission-line....PDF has

Flyback circuit provides isolated power
conversion - 01/07/99 Issue of EDN A common requirement in
telecommunications systems is to convert an unregulated 48V line to an isolated,
accurate dc supply voltage. The circuit in Figure 1 provides a 5V, 15W output. The
circuit uses a UCC3809 primary-side controller, which can also control other
single-ended converters. The topology uses peak-current-mode control with a
fixed-frequency oscillator. The design is cost-efficient....Page includes several
