About
  • Made of wound copper coils over each other.
  • Can isolate an alternating current from the
    circuit.
  • Transfers electrical power from the alternating
    current source (AC) power to the destination
    device.
  • Isolate the power supply from the powered device
    for safety reasons.
  • Used to protect against electric shock.

3
  • Provide galvanic isolation to suppress electric
    noise to delicate electric components.
  • Built with special insulation between the
    secondary and the primary.
  • Block the DC component transmission in signals
    from one circuit to another.
  • Allow the AC components to pass their signals.
  • Block any interference that can be caused by
    ground loop.

4
Isolation Transformer operation
  • Designed with acute attention to capacitive
    coupling between the two windings.
  • The capacitance between the secondary and primary
    windings would pair AC current from the main
    winding to the secondary winding.
  • Reduces the coupling significantly of common mode
    noise.
  • The differential noise can magnetically couple
    from the secondary to the primary of an isolation
    transformer.

5
Applications Of Isolation Transformers
  • Used in many different electronic devices that
    contain circuits
  • that cannot handle or are too sensitive to handle
    the alternating current directly.
  • Called as power adapters for computer
    laptops,cell phones and many other electronic
    devices.
  • Voltage heights supplied to homes and apartments
    is higher than the required amounts the
    electronic devices can consume.

6
Advantages Of Isolation Transformers
  • Increase and decrease alternating currents.
  • Can handle any amounts of voltages necessary.
  • Built to scale depending on the number of times
    the coils are wound.
  • Reduce electromagnetic and electrical
    interruptions from other power devices and
    sources.
  • Improve signal strength in wireless and radio
    wave communications.
