Switches or switches are devices that act as connectors and circuit breakers.<\/span> In electronic circuits and electrical circuits the switch functions to connect and disconnect the electric current flowing from a voltage source to the load (output) or from one system to another.<\/span> The following are some types of switches based on the construction of each switch.<\/span>

Top, from left to right: Circuit Breaker, Mercury Switch, Wafer Switch, DIP Switch, Surface Mount Switch, Reed Switch.<\/span> Down, from left to right: Wall Switch, Miniature Toggle Switch, In-Line Switch, Push-Button Switch, Rocker Switch, Micro Switch.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n Information:<\/span>
\n 1. On: Connected Position<\/span>
\n 2. Off: Unconnected Position<\/span>
\n 3. Push: Press<\/span>
\n 4. Pole: Number of contactors<\/span>
\n 5. Throw: Number of Conductor Position (connected)<\/span>
\n 6. Open: Open (Off Position)<\/span>
\n 7. Close: Closed (On Position)<\/span>
\n 8. Break: Off (Unconnected Position)<\/span>
\n 9. SPST (Single Pole Single Throw)<\/span>
\n 10. SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw)<\/span>
\n 11. SPXT (Single Pole X Trow) X = Throw count, for example SP6T (Single Pole 16 Throw)<\/span>
\n 12. DPST (Double Pole Single Throw)<\/span>
\n 13. DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw)<\/span>
\n 14. DPXT (Double Pole X Throw) x = Throw count, for example DP4T (Double Pole 4 Throw)<\/span>
\n 15. Push Button Switch<\/span>
\n 16. Push Break Switch<\/span><\/p>\n

\n DC-DC converters act like transformers<\/i> that convert a certain AC voltage to a higher or lower AC voltage.<\/span> There is no increase or decrease in input power during the conversion of its electrical energy form, so ideally the power equation can be written with the following equation:<\/span>
\n\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

DC-DC converters can be divided into 2 broad categories, namely isolated and non-isolated.<\/span> The word ‘isolation’ here simply means the use of a transformer (galvanic isolation) between the input voltage and the output voltage of the DC-DC converter.<\/span> Some sources mention that the DC-DC converter is not isolated with the term direct converter,<\/i> and an isolated converter with the term indirect<\/i> converter.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
