TransformatorT is a conceptual platform for modular transformer technology that combines configurable magnetic cores, windings, and an integrated digital control system to enable adaptable voltage transformation and power handling in modern electronics. Designed for research and early-stage development, TransformatorT emphasizes reconfigurability, scalability, and software-driven optimization.

The architecture centers on modular transformer blocks. Each block contains a magnetic core, windings, insulation, and a local interface to power electronics. Blocks interconnect through a high-speed bus and are orchestrated by a central software stack that implements topology reconfiguration, protection schemes, thermal management, and efficiency optimization across the assembly.

The concept has emerged in engineering education and research as a framework to study scalable power conversion and reconfigurable transformer design. Laboratory demonstrations have shown rapid reconfiguration between voltage levels and current ratings, as well as coordinated cooling strategies across multiple blocks.

Potential applications span data centers, renewable energy interfacing, electric vehicle charging infrastructure, and industrial power supplies. Claimed benefits include scalable capacity with fewer unique parts, faster deployment, simplified maintenance, and improved efficiency under dynamic load conditions. Real-world adoption faces challenges in thermal management, electromagnetic compatibility, and the alignment of standards and safety certifications.
