Current input converter
According to one embodiment, a current input converter includes a first metal plate having a solid shape, which has one end attached to the terminal table and one other end attached to one end of a primary-side coil of the transformer, and connects the terminal table and the one end of the primary-side coil of the transformer to each other, and a second metal plate having a solid shape, which has one end attached to the terminal table and one other end attached to one other end of the primary-side coil of the transformer, and connects the terminal table and the other end of the primary-side coil of the transformer to each other.
1. A current input converter comprising:
a terminal table which takes in an input current from outside;
a transformer which electrically isolates the input current taken in by the terminal table and converts the input current into a predetermined analog signal;
an analog-to-digital conversion circuit which converts the analog signal obtained by the transformer into a digital signal;
a first metal plate having a solid shape, which has one end attached to the terminal table and one other end attached to one end of a primary-side coil of the transformer, and connects the terminal table and the one end of the primary-side coil of the transformer to each other; and
a second metal plate having a solid shape, which has one end attached to the terminal table and one other end attached to one other end of the primary-side coil of the transformer, and connects the terminal table and the other end of the primary-side coil of the transformer to each other;
wherein peripheries of the first metal plate and the second metal plate are covered with an electrically insulating coating or an electrically insulating material;
wherein the first metal plate and the second metal plate are made to penetrate a printed circuit board where the transformer is mounted, and the first metal plate and the second metal plate are connected to each other by a patterned wire on a back of the printed circuit board, thereby forming the primary-side coil of the transformer; and
wherein in place of connecting the first metal plate and the second metal plate to each other by the patterned wire on the back of the printed circuit board, the first metal plate and the second metal plate are connected to each other by a third metal plate having a solid shape.
