Transformers play an important role in many electronic systems, helping support functions such as power conversion, electrical isolation, voltage management and current measurement. With different applications requiring different electrical and physical characteristics, selecting a suitable transformer starts with understanding the requirements of the design. 

Transformer Solutions Available Through Active Components

At Active Components, our transformer range includes several solutions designed for different application requirements. 

Encapsulated transformers offer an enclosed construction with features including low temperature rise, an improved insulation system and high mechanical strength. Standard series are available from 0.3VA to 30VA.

Ferrite power transformers are designed with features including primary-to-secondary insulation of ≥4000V, primary-to-auxiliary insulation of ≥1500V and a minimum 6mm primary-to-secondary creepage distance. Their construction conforms to IEC60950, IEC60335 and IEC61558.

Laminated transformers included options with Class B 130°C insulation systems, UL/CUL approval and customisable lead wire colours and terminations. Selected series conform to IEC EN61558-1 safety standards.

Current transformers provide solutions for current measurement and monitoring, with options including different current ratings, turns ratios and precision classes. The range also includes solutions for applications such as EV charging and three-phase systems. 

The right transformer will ultimately depend on the requirements of the application. Reviewing the electrical specifications, physical constraints and relevant standards can help narrow down the options.
