Step-down transformers operate on the principle of electromagnetic induction. When alternating current (AC) flows through the primary winding, it creates a magnetic field that induces a voltage in the ...

converts AC to DC. Resonant transformer: a capacitor is placed across one or both windings to function so the circuit can be tuned. Solar power transformer: the transformer can be incorporated as part ...

The transformer in the diagram above is a step-down transformer – there are fewer turns on the secondary coil than on the primary coil. Type of transformer Size of output voltage Number of turns ...
