  2. Magnetic amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_amplifier

    The typical magnetic amplifier consists of two physically separate but similar transformer magnetic cores, each of which has two windings: a control winding and an AC winding. Another common design uses a single core shaped like the number "8" with one control winding and two AC windings as shown in the photo above. A small DC current from a ...

  3. Transformer types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformer_types

    Toroidal transformer. Donut-shaped toroidal transformers save space compared to E-I cores, and may reduce external magnetic field. These use a ring shaped core, copper windings wrapped around this ring (and thus threaded through the ring during winding), and tape for insulation.

  4. Double-tuned amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-tuned_amplifier

    A double-tuned transformer from a radio receiver intermediate-frequency amplifier with its screening can removed. A double-tuned amplifier is a tuned amplifier with transformer coupling between the amplifier stages in which the inductances of both the primary and secondary windings are tuned separately with a capacitor across each.

  5. Transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformer

    When windings surround the core, the transformer is core form; when windings are surrounded by the core, the transformer is shell form. [24] Shell form design may be more prevalent than core form design for distribution transformer applications due to the relative ease in stacking the core around winding coils. [24]

  6. Autotransformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autotransformer

    It is a transformer in which the primary and secondary coils have part of their turns in common. The portion of the winding shared by both the primary and secondary is the common section. The portion of the winding not shared by both the primary and secondary is the series section. The primary voltage is applied across two of the terminals.

  7. Synchro - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchro

    The primary winding of the transformer, fixed to the rotor, is excited by an alternating current, which by electromagnetic induction causes voltages to appear between the Y-connected secondary windings fixed at 120 degrees to each other on the stator. The voltages are measured and used to determine the angle of the rotor relative to the stator.

  8. Tesla coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_coil

    Two coil or double-resonant circuits: Virtually all present Tesla coils use the two coil resonant transformer, consisting of a primary winding to which current pulses are applied, and a secondary winding that produces the high voltage, invented by Tesla in 1891. The term "Tesla coil" normally refers to these circuits.

  9. Polarity (mutual inductance) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarity_(mutual_inductance)

    The low voltage side of the instrument transformer, with dot and X1 marking. The X1 and H1 terminals are adjacent. In electrical engineering, dot marking convention, or alphanumeric marking convention, or both, can be used to denote the same relative instantaneous polarity of two mutually inductive components such as between transformer ...
