AI Thread Summary
Transformer impedance matching is crucial for efficient energy transfer between primary and secondary coils. The impedance seen at the primary side should ideally match the reflected impedance from the secondary side for optimal performance. However, it is noted that this matching is not always necessary and can vary based on specific circuit conditions. For analysis purposes, it is often simpler to refer impedances to one side before proceeding with calculations. Understanding these principles is essential for effective transformer design and application.

Homework Statement


Hello, i just a have a doubt regarding the transformer impedance, my professor told me that the impedance before the primary coil should match the net impedance seen by the secondary coil, is that correct, i am not so sure about it.

I would really appreciate it if you can help me with it. Thank you in advance.

I tried to explain it by picture, if that can help you aid what my question is:

It is not always the same. For analysis, it is simpler to refer the impedances to one side and then start the analysis.
