A DC transformer is a power electronic device used for DC voltage conversion, which can convert one DC voltage level to another DC voltage level. Unlike AC transformers, DC transformers cannot directly achieve voltage conversion through the principle of electromagnetic induction, but rely on power electronics technology to complete the regulation and transmission of DC voltage through high-frequency switching, transformer isolation and high-frequency rectification.

Working principle of DC transformer

High-frequency chopping: The input DC voltage is chopped into a high-frequency pulse signal through a high-frequency switch (such as MOSFET or IGBT).

Transformer isolation: The high-frequency pulse signal is electrically isolated and voltage converted through a high-frequency transformer for welding.

High-frequency rectification: The high-frequency AC signal output by the transformer is converted into a DC voltage through a rectifier circuit.

Filtering: The high-frequency component is removed through the filtering circuit to obtain a stable DC output voltage.

Characteristics of DC transformers
