Datatronic releases gate drive transformer
The SM580 transformer from Datatronic Distribution provides efficient pulse control in gate drive circuits used in MOSFETs and IGBTs for switch mode power supplies and other electronic equipment
The DCR is 2.8ohm.
Turns ratios available, depending on model configuration, are: 1:1, 1:1:5 and 1:1:1.
The SM580's design combines high performance with a compact size, high temperature compatibility and economy for use in a wide range of equipment.
Datatronic said that the model offers excellent drive characteristics for power supplies in PCs, telecom gear, instrumentation, industrial controls and other electronic devices that require power supplies.
Its conductive packaging can be effective in minimising the effects of radiated EMI emissions.
The SM580 features a low-profile design that measures 4.31mm (0.170in) high with a flat top.
The package footprint is 6.60x8.38mm (0.260x0.330in) for compatibility with high-density circuit designs.
Its flat top makes the SM580 ideal for automated pick and place manufacturing.
