Flyback Chronograph
A flyback chronograph is a watch complication, in which the user can use a reset function without the need to first stop the chronograph, by a single press on an additional pusher at the 4 o'clock mark. In usual chronographs of the time, the user had to push three times for the same operation. First they had to stop the chronograph, then reset the hands at zero, and finally restart the chronograph in order to time the next sequence. A flyback chronograph shortens the time of operation needed to measure subsequent legs of a flight. Other names The flyback function is also known by some other names: * Retour-en-vol () * Taylor system * Permanent zero setting Overview The flyback function is a complication inspired by the need of pilots in the early 20th century, especially on shorter flights where pilots oriented themselves along highly visible geographical marks like rivers, mountains or railroad tracks. Flyback chronographs have a different layout than the usual monopusher chr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |

Flyback Converter
The flyback converter is used in both AC/DC conversion, AC/DC, and DC-DC conversion, DC/DC conversion with galvanic isolation between the input and any outputs. The flyback converter is a buck-boost converter with the inductor split to form a transformer, so that the voltage ratios are multiplied with an additional advantage of isolation. Structure and principle The schematic of a flyback converter is shown in Fig. 1. It is equivalent to that of a buck–boost converter, with the inductor split to form a transformer. Therefore, the operating principle of both converters is very similar: * When the switch is closed (top of Fig. 2), the primary of the transformer is directly connected to the input voltage source. The primary current and magnetic flux in the transformer increases, storing energy in the transformer. The voltage induced in the secondary winding is negative, so the diode is reverse-biased (i.e., blocked). The output capacitor supplies energy to the output load. * Wh ...

Flyback Diode
A flyback diode (also called freewheeling diode) is any diode connected across an inductor used to eliminate flyback, which is the sudden voltage spike seen across an inductance, inductive electrical load, load when its supply current is suddenly reduced or interrupted. It is used in circuits in which inductive loads are controlled by switches, and in switching power supply, switching power supplies and power inverter, inverters. Flyback circuits have been used since 1930 and were refined starting in 1950 for use in television receivers. The word ''flyback'' comes from the horizontal movement of the electron beam in a cathode ray tube, because the beam flew back to begin the next horizontal line. This diode is known by many other names, such as snubber diode, commutating diode, freewheeling diode, suppressor diode, clamp diode, or catch diode. Operation Fig. 1 shows an inductor connected to a battery - a constant voltage source. The resistor represents the small static resis ...

Flyback Transformer
A flyback transformer (FBT), also called a line output transformer (LOPT), is a special type of electrical transformer. It was initially designed to generate high-voltage sawtooth signals at a relatively high frequency. In modern applications, it is used extensively in switched-mode power supplies for both low (3 V) and high voltage (over 10 kV) supplies. History The flyback transformer circuit was invented as a means of controlling the horizontal movement of the electron beam in a cathode-ray tube (CRT). Unlike conventional transformers, a flyback transformer is not fed with a signal of the same waveshape as the intended output current. A convenient side effect of such a transformer is the considerable energy that is available in its magnetic circuit. This can be exploited using extra windings to provide power to operate other parts of the equipment. In particular, very high voltages are easily obtained using relatively few turns of windings which, after rectifica ...
