Transformer for energy saving electronic devices

In today’s world and for the future environmentally friendly technologies is a necessity! Consumer and manufacturers have turned their attention towards energy saving electronic devices.

Various semiconductor manufacturers already offer simple ICs with which competitive SMPS can be designed. Würth Elektronik has developed two transformer series, which are designed and manufactured to the requirements of the leading semiconductor manufacturers STMicroelectronics and Power Integrations. The offline transformer WE- UNIT has an input voltage of 85 – 265 VAC and an isolation voltage of 4 kVAC. The transformers are especially designed for universal input as well as for offline-switch mode power supply.

An additional requirement to decrease the energy consumption will be released by the law. One of these requirements results in the disappearance of the linear regulators in the near future. They will be replaced by SMPS.

The aim of manufacturing SMPS’ is the development of power supply for the worldwide universal input. The advantages are obvious: Efficiencies of 80% and more, less weight and smaller size than linear regulators as well as a low stand by-power consumption. All products are available ex stock.
