What is a DC converter and its current applications
A DC converter is mainly a voltage converter that effectively outputs a fixed voltage after converting the input voltage.
It is mainly divided into boost DC-DC converter, buck DC-DC converter, industrial isolated DC-DC converter, and non-isolated DC-DC converter.
At present, DC-DC converters are widely used in power electronics, military industry, scientific research, industrial control equipment, communication equipment, instrumentation, switching equipment, access equipment, mobile communications, routers and other communication fields and industrial control, automotive electronics, aerospace and other fields.
DC Converter Operating Principles and Configuration
The working principle of the DC converter is to convert the input DC power into AC power through a self-excited oscillation circuit, and then change the voltage through a transformer to convert it into DC output, or convert the AC power into high-voltage DC output through a voltage doubler rectifier circuit.
The DC-DC converter is a newly developed micro power switch module that is composed of tiny surface mount integrated circuits and microelectronic components assembled using microelectronic technology.
The development prospects of DC converters in the future
Because DC converters are widely used in telecommunications, data communications, computers, OA equipment, industrial instruments, military, aerospace and other fields, and are involved in all strata of the national economy. According to the rated power, DC/DC can be divided into three categories: above 750W, 750W to 1W, and less than 1W. Entering the 20th century, we can provide high-power products that people can use.
In the 1990s, the growth rate of low-power range DC converters increased significantly. Among them, 6W to 25W DC/DC converters had the highest growth rate.
Widely used in DC measurement and test equipment, computer display systems, computers and military communication systems. Due to the high speed of microprocessors, DC-DC converters have evolved from low power consumption to low power consumption.
Since the development of medium power is an inevitable trend, the growth rate of DC-DC converters from 251W to 750W is relatively fast, and they are mainly used in service medical and laboratory applications.
It can be seen that DC-DC converters have a wide range of potential applications in the fields of remote and digital communications, including equipment, industrial control equipment, remote communication equipment, and multi-channel communication and transmission equipment.
