555 Timer Flyback Driver for High-Voltage Capacitor Charger
Drawing preview
Lo scenario

A 555 timer in astable mode produces a square wave that switches an N-channel MOSFET, driving the primary of a flyback transformer to generate high-voltage pulses that are rectified and stored in a high-voltage capacitor.

Cosa contiene questo disegno

Leggi le decisioni che ne stanno alla base.

01

Use 555 timer astable with TRIG/THRES tied together for 50% duty gate drive

02

An N-channel MOSFET grounds the flyback primary, allowing current to build and then interrupt for flyback pulse

03

Rectifier diode steers the secondary flyback pulse into a high-voltage storage capacitor with a high-resistance bleeder

Use for capacitor chargers, high-voltage bias supplies, and flyback converters that need an isolated step-up from a low-voltage DC rail.
