Default Re: Vibrators Solid State Replacements

Kalee20,

I was thinking it would be good to design an experiment to assess what proportion of the voltage transient is created by the load current storing energy in the leakage inductance , vs the transformed voltage shock exciting the leakage inductance's resonant circuit.

See attached circuit (leakage inductances and tuning capacitances not shown). Simply by turning it into a single ended circuit and having no initial current in the leakage inductance and therefore no stored energy in it, before the mosfet turns on. It could be interesting.

What do you think will happen ? I'm going to try it in a while, but I'm away for a bit. It could be setup in spice for a transient analysis by inserting some values for the leakage inductance, resistance and capacitances.
