Abstract
A new piezoelectric transformer (PT) converter which functions as an AC-adapter is proposed. The device's PT operates in longitudinal-vibration mode and features good isolation, incombustibility and compact size. The PT was implemented as a part of the new AC-adapter and a significant reduction in size was achieved as a result. Experimental evaluation of the new adapter confirms that good performance was successfully obtained in spite of the need to comply with strict safety and noise standards.
