Abstract
A piezoelectric transformer is disclosed In an embodiment a piezoelectric transformer includes a cylindrical base body with an input region and an output region, wherein a cylinder axis of the base body extends in a longitudinal direction, wherein the input region is configured to convert an AC voltage into a mechanical vibration, wherein the output region is configured to convert a mechanical vibration into an electrical voltage, wherein the output region includes a single piezoelectric layer polarized in the longitudinal direction, wherein, in the input region, a first piezoelectric layer, on which a first internal electrode is arranged, and a second piezoelectric layer, on which a second internal electrode is arranged, are wound onto one another, and wherein the first piezoelectric layer and the second piezoelectric layer are polarized in a radial direction which is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction.
