Abstract

While the increase in the customer failure rate in the consumer electronics sector affects the manufacturers negatively in terms of cost. It has also become one of the issues that cause customer loss and customer satisfaction. In addition to the economic losses, during the production and distribution of the spare parts and products that are changed at the customer's home due to the reliability problems experienced in the field, extra carbon emissions are released to the nature for this operation. For these reasons, it has become important to reduce the rate of customer failure. 
 With the increase in electronic components, the quality and reliability precautions that may occur in the electronic circuits, have become the subject of study today. As in many white goods products, it is advantageous to have variable speed motors in refrigerators due to energy efficiency and energy regulation issues. For this reason, the compressor of refrigerator comes to the forefront as the component that dissipates the highest power proportionally. With the use of variable speed compressors, the need for an electronic board with including power conversion and motor driving capability has arisen.
 In this paper, RC Snubber circuits have been studied in order to prevent quality problems that may occur due to high switching frequency in flyback converter topology, which is one of the DC-DC converters that provide isolation. The methods in the literature based on the location of the RC Snubber in the circuit and the determination of its related values were examined and experiments were made on the simulation program. At the same time, a test mechanism was set up on the variable speed compressor motor control card of the refrigerator and measurements were taken with the help of an oscilloscope. The measurements taken in the simulation program and the experimental environment were compared.
