A transformer is a core electrical device that utilizes the principle of electromagnetic induction to achieve the conversion of alternating current (AC) between different voltage levels. With its characteristics of high efficiency, stable operation, flexible voltage regulation, and reliable insulation performance, it is widely applied in various fields such as power transmission, industrial production, and civil power supply, playing an irreplaceable role in the distribution, regulation, and utilization of electrical energy.


We have summarized the following roles of transformers in control units:

1. Voltage Conversion and Efficient Transmission: Transformers can step up or step down voltages according to actual needs. In the power system, step-up transformers increase the low-voltage electricity generated by power plants to high voltage, significantly reducing line losses during long-distance transmission. For example, the electricity output by power plants, which is tens of kilovolts, can be raised to hundreds of kilovolts for long-distance transmission. Step-down transformers, on the other hand, gradually reduce high voltage to levels suitable for industrial production and residential use. For instance, 110-kilovolt high voltage can be reduced to 10 kilovolts for regional power distribution and further to 380V/220V for household and commercial use, ensuring the safe and stable delivery of electrical energy to the end-users.

2. Electrical Isolation and Safety Assurance: The primary and secondary coils of a transformer are magnetically coupled but electrically isolated, effectively blocking the interference and fault conduction between circuits. In medical equipment, isolation transformers prevent patients from the risk of electric shock due to leakage current, ensuring medical safety. Take the electrical isolation transformer used in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) equipment as an example. The MRI device obtains human images through a strong magnetic field and radiofrequency pulses, and its operation involves complex electronic systems and high-precision sensors. The electrical isolation between the primary and secondary coils of the isolation transformer separates the main power supply of the MRI device (such as 380V AC power) from the parts in contact with the human body (such as the patient operation console and vital sign monitoring module). In communication devices, transformers can suppress electromagnetic interference from the power grid, providing clean and stable power for precision instruments and avoiding impacts on signal transmission.


3. Power Matching and Load Regulation: By adjusting the turns ratio of the transformer, precise power matching between the power source and the load can be achieved, significantly improving the transmission efficiency of electrical energy. In industrial production, for motors with different power requirements, transformers can adjust the output voltage and current as needed, enabling the motors to operate at their optimal state and reducing energy consumption. In the field of new energy power generation, transformers can optimize the power adaptation between wind turbines, photovoltaic power stations, and the power grid, enhancing the utilization rate of clean energy.


4. Voltage Stabilization and Fluctuation Suppression: In the face of voltage fluctuations in the power grid, on-load tap-changing transformers can automatically adjust the output voltage in real-time to maintain stable power supply. In remote mountainous areas with unstable voltage, such transformers ensure normal power consumption for residents. In data centers with extremely high requirements for power supply quality, they can effectively prevent server downtime and other failures caused by voltage fluctuations, safeguarding data security and continuous business operations.


5. Phase Conversion and Special Applications: In addition to common single-phase and three-phase transformers, some specially designed transformers can achieve the conversion of electrical energy between different phases to meet the needs of specific scenarios. For example, in urban rail transit, balance transformers can convert three-phase electricity into single-phase electricity suitable for train traction. In the metallurgical industry, special transformers for electric arc furnaces can provide high-current and low-voltage electrical energy to meet the special requirements of the smelting process.

3225 crystal has become one of the indispensable components in modern electronic devices due to its miniaturization, high stability and wide range of applications.

 

In the early years, people relied on paper maps for self-driving trips. However, paper maps cannot be used to check routes while driving, and cannot quickly determine the current location. With the continuous development and progress of technology, navigation devices have quietly entered people's daily lives, bringing great convenience. Next, let's talk about the role of crystal oscillators in navigation devices.

 

First, the crystal oscillator provides an accurate time reference in the navigation device. By synchronizing with the external GPS satellite, the crystal oscillator can ensure that the time inside the navigation device is consistent with the global standard time. This is essential for the normal operation of the navigation device because it needs to accurately calculate information such as position, speed and direction.

 

Secondly, the crystal oscillator also provides a stable frequency signal. In radio navigation equipment, the crystal oscillator acts as an oscillator to generate a stable oscillation frequency. These frequency signals are used to modulate and demodulate wireless signals to achieve communication with navigation satellites or ground base stations. The stability and accuracy of the crystal oscillator are essential to ensure reliable communication between navigation equipment and the outside world.

In addition, crystal oscillators also play the role of frequency synthesis in radio navigation equipment. By combining multiple crystal oscillators together, higher frequency band signals can be generated to meet the needs of different navigation systems. This frequency synthesis technology enables radio navigation equipment to operate in a wide frequency range, improving the flexibility and adaptability of the navigation system.

 

Crystal oscillators play an important role in providing accurate time reference and stable frequency signals in radio navigation equipment. Its stability, accuracy and frequency synthesis capability are essential to ensure the normal operation of navigation equipment and reliable communication with the outside world. Therefore, crystal oscillators play an indispensable role in radio navigation equipment.
