  2. Voltage converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_converter

    A transformer or autotransformer can be used; (auto)transformers are inherently reversible, so the same transformer can be used to step the voltage up, or step it down by the same ratio. Lighter and smaller devices can be made using electronic circuitry; reducing the voltage electronically is simpler and cheaper than increasing it.

  3. Electric power conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_conversion

    Certain specialized circuits can also be considered power converters, such as the flyback transformer subsystem powering a CRT, generating high voltage at approximately 15 kHz. Consumer electronics usually include an AC adapter (a type of power supply ) to convert mains-voltage AC current to low-voltage DC suitable for consumption by microchips.

  4. AC adapter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_adapter

    Ratings over a few watts made the devices too large and heavy to be physically supported by a wall outlet. The output voltage of these adapters varied with load; for equipment requiring a more stable voltage, linear voltage regulator circuitry was added. Losses in the transformer and the linear regulator were considerable; efficiency was ...

  5. Switched-mode power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switched-mode_power_supply

    Any switched-mode power supply that gets its power from an AC power line (called an "off-line" converter [37]) requires a transformer for galvanic isolation. [citation needed] Some DC-to-DC converters may also include a transformer, although isolation may not be critical in these cases. SMPS transformers run at high frequencies.

  6. Power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_supply

    An AC adapter disassembled to reveal a simple, unregulated linear DC supply circuit: a transformer, four diodes in a bridge rectifier arrangement, and an electrolytic capacitor to smooth the waveform. In a linear power supply the AC input voltage passes through a power transformer and is then

  7. Phase converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_converter

    An American Rotary Phase Converter with a Transformer. A phase converter is a device that converts electric power provided as single phase to multiple phase or vice versa. The majority of phase converters are used to produce three-phase electric power from a single-phase source, thus allowing the operation of three-phase equipment at a site that only has single-phase electrical service.

    A device that adjusts the (effective) voltage to a load. voltage converter Any device that changes electric power at one voltage to power at a second; a transformer is a common example of an AC voltage converter. voltage division A circuit that produces an output voltage that is some, perhaps adjustable, fraction of the input voltage. voltage ...

  9. Forward converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forward_converter

    A schematic showing the most important components of a forward converter. ATX PC Power Supply with Forward Converter (heat sinks are removed for better view) The forward converter is a DC/DC converter that uses a transformer to increase or decrease the output voltage (depending on the transformer ratio) and provide galvanic isolation for the ...
