Understanding Flywheel Diode Functions in Circuits
Introduction to Flywheel Diodes Flywheel diodes play a crucial role in preventing damage to electronic components. Commonly known as suppression, snubber, kickback, or clamp diodes, these components are essential in circuits with inductive loads. Inductive loads, like motors and transformers, can create high voltage spikes when switched off. These spikes, if unchecked, can harm other…
