converter (n)

This electrical energy is converted into mechanical vibrational energy (ultrasound) by the sound converter.

These are thermoelectric converters that harness the contact between two differently doped semi-conductors.

Key applications include switched-mode power supplies, frequency converters, direct DC converters and inverters.

Umrichter (m)

Wichtige Einsatzgebiete sind u. a. Schaltnetzteile, Frequenzumrichter, Gleichstromsteller und Wechselrichter.
