I wannawant to use a transformer to convert AC voltage. Input is 220V AC ------at 50 Hz and output is, for example, 5V 30mA AC. Many
Many people told me, this transformer will be huge big. because the mainmains frequency is huge low But. But, I check something about the transformer design, still have no idea, how big it will be. (BTW, 50Hz main FreFrequency is so low, I am not sure if the transformer could magnetize..., maybe need big Fe core....)
For my converting requirement, and take Piezo transformer or any other high-advanced transformer design (like pcb stack twisting transformer) for example (smaller, better). How large it will be ? Suprise me.
(I have no idea about the transformer design, I mean, how thick the conventional coil wire, etc. I just know the basic equations Vin x Iin = Vout x I out...some some text book stuff, no experimental experience.)
How do I determine which core size is appropriate and how many windings of what type of wire I am supposed to use for primary and secondary?
