2. Boost converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boost_converter

   A boost converter or step-up converter is a DC-to-DC converter that increases voltage, while decreasing current, from its input ( supply) to its output ( load ). It is a class of switched-mode power supply (SMPS) containing at least two semiconductors, a diode and a transistor, and at least one energy storage element: a capacitor, inductor, or ...

3. Buck converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buck_converter

   A buck converter or step-down converter is a DC-to-DC converter which decreases voltage, while increasing current, from its input to its output . It is a class of switched-mode power supply . Switching converters (such as buck converters) provide much greater power efficiency as DC-to-DC converters than linear regulators , which are simpler ...

4. DC-to-DC converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC-to-DC_converter

   Power engineering. 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).

5. Voltage converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_converter

   A common use of the voltage converter is for a device that allows appliances made for the mains voltage of one geographical region to operate in an area with different voltage. Such a device may be called a voltage converter, power converter, travel adapter, etc. Most single phase alternating-current electrical outlets in the world supply power ...

6. Electric power conversion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_conversion

   Recloser. Protective relay. v. t. e. In electrical engineering, power conversion is the process of converting electric energy from one form to another. A power converter is an electrical device for converting electrical energy between alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC). It can also change the voltage or frequency of the current.

7. DC connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC_connector

   A DC connector (or DC plug, for one common type of connector) is an electrical connector for supplying direct current (DC) power. Compared to domestic AC power plugs and sockets, DC connectors have many more standard types that are not interchangeable. The dimensions and arrangement of DC connectors can be chosen to prevent accidental ...
