DC/DC Converter An Ideal Solution for Changing the Voltage Level of DC Power

DC/DC Converter An Ideal Solution for Changing the Voltage Level of DC Power

DC/DC Converter is an electronic circuit widely used to convert the voltage of DC power from one level to another. Since, transformers cant’s step-up or step-down DC electrical power like AC power, these Converters serve extreme purposes in many commercial and industrial applications. Same like transformers, these Converters just change the input energy into

different voltage levels. Therefore, they can be considered as a DC equivalent of a transformer. DC to DC power Converters are being utilized for wide verities of applications including supplying different voltage levels for operating personal computers, spacecraft power systems, office equipments, and telecommunications equipments, dc motor drives and so on.



With the increasing popularity and wide use, there has been a mushroom growth of manufacturers and distributors who indulge in the fabrication and distribution of Converters. These manufacturers and distributors serve automation and process control, avionics and transport, communication systems and medical industries with best-in-class DC/DC Converter in wattages from 0.25W to 200W.

Brief on different types

There are different types of DC/DC Converter available and each has its own pros and cons. Hence, you must have a clear understanding of the various types and their specific features and applications before making any purchasing decision. There are Converters available for only stepping up DC voltage and some others specifically for steeping sown the voltage. Also, Converters available for both stepping up and stepping down purposes.

DC to DC power Converters are broadly classified as isolating and non-isolating Converters. Let us see a brief overview of these Converter types.

Non-isolating Converters: This type of Converter is generally employed for stepping up or stepping down DC voltage level by a small ratio. Non-isolating Converters are further categorized as buck, boost, buck-boost, Cuk and charge-pump converters.

Non-isolating types with Uses:

Buck Converter: For voltage step-down/reduction
Boost converter: For Voltage step-up
Buck-boost Converter: For Either step-down or step-up
Cuk converters: Both for step-down or step-up
Charge-pump converter: Voltage step-up or voltage inversion in low power applications
Isolating Converters – Fly back Converter and forward Converter are the two main categories of isolating Converters.

How to and where to procure DC to DC Converters?

If you are wondering where to find the perfect DC/DC Converter for various purposes, searching online is the best option for you. Find the most trusted online store and check out the various types of Converters they have in store. Find the most suitable Converter that would serve your purpose perfectly and place order for it. Make sure that the online shop that you choose is a genuine and reliable one. There are many manufacturers who show their presence online with huge inventory of Converters with options like SIP, DIP, SMD, and Chassis Mount. Also, these manufacturers take custom orders and fabricate Converters as per the exact customer requirements for extended temperature ranges, high isolation barriers, varying switching frequencies John Kanady amazines.com
