1 IntroductionFlyback converters are based on the storage of energy in an inductorduring the "on" charging time period t<sub>on</sub>, and discharge of thisenergy to the load during the "off" time period, t<sub>off</sub>, as shown inFigure 1. The operation is unipolar and utilizes the first quadrant of the B-Hcurve of a magnetic core (Figure 2). The usable flux density is△B. The ideal core material should have a maximum available △Band low core losses (proportional to the shaded area).For flyback transformers, Magnetics offers:
