IDEAL TRANSFORMER
• The transformer transfers electrical energy from one
circuit to another through the changing magnetic field
that links both circuits.
• In the transmission, distribution, and utilization of
electrical energy, the transformer changes voltage
levels at a fixed frequency, such as 50 Hz or 60 Hz,
and the power to be handled can vary from a few
hundred watts to several hundred megawatts.

IDEAL TRANSFORMER
In the communications field, the use of the transformer
is based on different considerations.
Some of the applications:
Impedance matching, DC isolation, and changing
voltage levels with power handling capacities of the
order of a few watts but with the capability of
operating satisfactorily over a very wide frequency
range.

IDEAL TRANSFORMER
• An ideal transformer is assumed to have no losses,
stray capacitance, and leakage flux.

IMPEDANCE MATCHING

• We know that maximum power can be transferred to the


load if either (1) Z L = Z o* or (2) | Z L |=| Z o | . The magnitudes
of Z L and Z o can be made almost equal by interposing an
ideal transformer between the source and the load.
• Turns ratio is so selected that | Zo | ( N1 / N2 )2 | Z L | , which is
equal to the impedance looking into terminals 1 1’ .
