This is a blog post written about high voltage DC-to-DC converters and the market that requires them. Today’s DC-DC Converter powers electronics around the globe. To do so, it takes an input voltage and converts to another DC output voltage. The converter could be greater on either side.
The output voltages help match power supplies to a required
load. In other words, it ensures the parts don’t get too much (or too little)
“juice.” That’s the power of a high voltage DC-to-DC converter
in the twenty-first century.
DC-to-DC Converter circuits consist of the following parts: Transistor or diode switch, Energy storage devices like
inductors or capacitors, Linear voltage regulators, Or switched mode voltage
regulators.
In summary, they provide a constant source of power for
electronics big and small. The applications vary greatly across industries. You
might find the technology in airplanes or cell phones, for instance.
When the power goes from lower to higher, it's called a
step-up converter. In general, adjustable
high voltage power supply (for DC/DC converters) is designed by using semiconductor
switching devices with discrete electrical components. This boost converter
circuit switch is controlled using a pulse width modulator (PWM). If this
switch is ON, then energy will be developed in the inductor. Thus, more energy
will be delivered to the output. This can solve a slew of problems for the
electronic device manufacturer. One company handles it all: www.hvmtech.com.
