ENGR 458/558 Project: FLYBACK CONVERTER
This project involves the design and simulation of a 100W DC-DC flyback converter for a notebook adapter. Key elements include transformer and component selection, PI controller tuning, stress calculations, and PSIM validation under varied operating conditions.

VI. Conclusion
Our research endeavors to understand the determinants of IMDb ratings, employing three distinct models: Multiple Regression, Nonlinear Regression, and Time Fixed Effects. Our final specification is anchored in a diverse set of independent variables such as Release Year, Runtime, Genres, Number of Votes, Gross Profit, Certification, Directors, and Lead Actors. While certain variables exhibit significant effects, such as Release Year, Runtime, Genres, and Number of Votes, others like Age Certification and certain Directors and Actors prove less influential. We decided to stay with model with the less endogeneity problems and adjusted R² of 0.76
Despite the valuable insights gained from our models, challenges persist in dealing with categorical variables and the potential for multicollinearity. Addressing these issues remains an ongoing effort as we refine our models and confront challenges related to simultaneous causality and endogeneity. Future research could involve looking deeper into the dynamics between variables through interaction terms, more variables, increasing the sample size, and considering the incorporation of additional instrumental variables. These efforts could fortify the robustness of our models. Harnessing these econometric tools can provide us a more nuanced understanding of the determinants of IMDb ratings within the dynamic and ever-evolving landscape of the film industry.

1. Introduction
Fly back converter is derived from a Buck/Boost topology. The main advantage for a Fly back converter is that it is an isolated DC/DC converter which means that the primary and secondary side reference voltages are not the same. This is advantageous as it prevents any hazardous voltage reference changes such as during a lighting strike and decouples the user from the input voltage fluctuation.
A sample converter is shown in Fig.1.
