Introduction to DC to DC Converters

DC to DC converters form the basis of power system solutions and have made the world as we know it today – from computers to phones, vehicles, and industrial equipment. The biggest challenge they face is efficiently converting a higher DC voltage to a lower DC voltage. The device used to do this is called a DC to DC converter.

A DC to DC converter is an electronic circuit that converts a direct current (DC) input voltage into a different DC output voltage. It is used to modify a DC voltage in order to adapt it to a different load or a different operating environment. In most cases DC to DC converters are used to convert voltage from a higher level to a lower level, but some designs can also be used for increasing the voltage level.
