Comments

  • The WE-FLEX series of transformers consist of 6 independent windings which can be connected on the board as required. The 25 transformers facilitate more than 500 transformer and choke variants. The transformers still show an outstandingly low level of leakage inductance. Parts without airgap are especially designed for buck derived topologies like forward or push-pull converters. The high flexibility of the transformers allows developers to realize their own transformers without having to resort to a customer-specific transformer. Power levels of between 1 and 50 Watts can be transformed with the WE-FLEX series transformers. They can be used at switching frequencies of up to 1 MHz.
