A
transformer
can
increase
or
decrease voltage or current levels
according to the turns ratio. In
addition, the impedance connected to
one side of a transformer can be made
to appear either larger or smaller (step
up or step down) at the other side of
the transformer, depending on the
square of the transformer winding
turns ratio. This assumes ideal (100%)
power transfer from primary to
secondary, that is, no power losses are
considered.
Voltage Transformation
V1 = Voltage across
primary side
V2 = Voltage across
secondary side
N1 = Number of coils
in the primary side
N2 = Number of coils
in the secondary
side
Current Transformation
I1 = Current through
primary side
I2 = Current through
secondary side
N1 = Number of coils
in the primary side
N2 = Number of coils
in the secondary
side
Impedance Transformation
RL =
Impedance
on primary side
a = Ratio of the
number of coils(N1 /
N2 )
N1 = Number of coils
in the primary side
N2 = Number of coils
in the secondary
side
