Mains frequency comes from the wall at 60Hz, we design a power supply and the energy is routed directly to a transformer in our example.....Is that 12Vac power supply frequency (at that point) still 60Hz? What acts upon a given frequency to alter it within a simple power supply design?
Are voltage altering transformers EVEN CAPABLE of altering frequency? A TRANSFORMER IN A MICROWAVE OVEN JACKS UP THE VOLTAGE BUT THE SAME FREQUENCY EXISTS. Yet superficially (it seems) that there are situations where other designs of transformers alter the frequency....I don't know if this is a short sighted observation.
Thank you for taking the time with this issue. I searched and found only definitions and conditions of frequency; not altering conditional situations.
