Input stages of AC-drive converter systems. Figure 2 shows the top and bottom views of an air-cooled 10 kW-Vienna Rectifier (400 kHz PWM), with sinusoidal input current s and controlled output voltage. Dimensions are 250mm x 120mm x 40mm, resulting in a power density of 8.5 kW/dm 3. The total weight of the converter is 2.1 kg [10]
Push-pull converter (+12V → ±18V; 50W) as potted module. ① transformer; ② and ③ electrolytic capacitors vertical and horizontal mounted; ④ discrete circuit board in through-hole technology A push–pull converter is a type of DC-to-DC converter , a switching converter that uses a transformer to change the voltage of a DC power supply.
The pressure transmitter modulates the current on the loop to send the signal to the strip chart recorder, but does not in itself supply power to the loop and so is passive. Another loop may contain two passive chart recorders, a passive pressure transmitter, and a 24 V battery (the battery is the active device).
A Z-source inverter is a type of power inverter, a circuit that converts direct current to alternating current. The circuit functions as a buck-boost inverter without making use of DC-DC converter bridge due to its topology. Impedance (Z) source networks efficiently convert power between source and load from DC to DC, DC to AC, and from AC to ...
SMPSs often include safety features such as current limiting or a crowbar circuit to help protect the device and the user from harm. [1] In the event that an abnormal high-current power draw is detected, the switched-mode supply can assume this is a direct short and will shut itself down before damage is done.
A DC-to-DC converter is an electronic circuit or electromechanical device that converts a source of direct current (DC) from one voltage level to another. It is a type of electric power converter . Power levels range from very low (small batteries) to very high (high-voltage power transmission).

For long distance undersea cables (e.g. between countries, such as NorNed), this DC option is the only technically feasible option. For applications requiring direct current, such as third rail power systems, alternating current is distributed to a substation, which utilizes a rectifier to convert the power to direct current.
