<p>A piezoelectric transformer (10) operating in a thickness-shear vibration mode (26). The piezoelectric transformer (10) comprises a lithium niobate substrate (12) having first and second acoustically coupled portions (16, 22), and a plurality of substantially opposing pairs of primary and secondary electrodes (14, 20) disposed thereon. An input AC voltage applied to the primary electrode pairs (14) exciting a thickness-shear vibration (26) which couples to the secondary electrode pairs (20) producing an output AC voltage therebetween. The primary and secondary electrodes (14, 20) being electrically connected in various combinations of parallel and series connections to provide a desired step-up or step-down voltage transfer ratio.</p> |
