DC/DC Converter is an electronic circuit which converts a source of direct current (DC) from one voltage level to another. It is a class of power converter.
The isolated DC-DC converter is electrically separated between the input and the output terminals while the input and the output of a non-isolated converter share the common ground. Sometimes an isolated DC-DC converter is called isolated ground or galvanic isolated type.
Simply use a digital multi-meter or any other ohm meter to measure the resistance between the ground terminals of the input and output of the converter. If the shorted (common) it is a non-isolated type, otherwise it is an isolated type.
Summary Isolated and non-isolated DC-DC converter.
Non-isolated DC-DC converters are common and of lower cost, they are used in most negative ground application in vehicles for various DC powered appliances and equipment. However they have one big disadvantage in the electrical connection between the input and output which offers little or no protection to the load for any high electrical voltage, current and etc. occurs on the input side. They also have less noise filtering blockage.
Isolated DC-DC converters have high isolation (barrier) voltage from several hundreds to thousand volts depending on the type of standard. They can be used as negative grounded or positive ground or floating ground for various equipment from data com to telecom. They have strong noise and interference blocking capability thus provide the load with a cleaner DC source which is required by many sensitive load.
For industry structure analysis, the Isolated DC-DC Converter industry is fragmented. A variety of manufacturers ranging from large multinational corporations to small privately owned companies compete in this industry. The top 13 producers account for about 33 % of the revenue market. Regionally, China is the biggest production area of isolated DC-DC converter, also the leader in the whole isolated DC-DC converter industry.
China occupied 19.31% of the consumption market in 2015. It is followed by Europe and North America, which respectively have around 15.66% and 15.43% of the Global total industry. Other countries have a small amount of production. Asia-Pacific region is expected to be the largest and fastest growing market for global isolated DC-DC converters.
For price trend analysis, a key variable in the performance of Isolated DC-DC Converter producers is raw material costs, specifically the speed at which any increase can be passed through to customers. The price of the major raw material varies according to the capacitor, inductor and the circuit board.
