Benefits of Piezoelectric Transformers and Begin Soldering Your Own Leads
Advantages Of Piezoelectric Transformers Over Electromagnetic Transformers:
There are numerous advantages to using piezoelectric transformers over electromagnetic transformers. Piezoelectric transformers are:
– Small and lightweight
– Highly efficient: 93-96% at outputs ≤ 30W
– Do not generate electromagnetic noise
– Deliver a more uniform output
– Non-flammable
Piezo transformers are typically constructed from hard PZT materials. They consist of two ceramic components, an input and output component, which are typically combined in a single element. One popular piezo transformer design is the Rosen transformer.
Piezoelectric transformers are most effective in these applications:
– LCD backup inverters for laptop computers
– Driving piezo actuators in optics and medical equipment
– Fluorescent light tubes
– X-ray tubes
