Pulse Transformer 4503

This is a small 1:1:1 pulse transformer.

The pulse transformer is cased in a plastic shell and has a ration of 1:1:1 i.e. it has one primary coil & two secondary coil. This is simple transformer for coupling input to two output's. 4503 Pulse transformer has six legs where two legs acts as primary whereas 4 legs represent two pairs of secondary coils. Both the secondary windings are electrically isolated to ensure minimum leakage inductance between the two. So when a pulse is provided at the primary pulse we receive output at both the secondary outputs. This can be used for firing two SCR's in inverse configuration.

What is Pulse Transformer?

Pulse transformer for some applications also gate transformer or gate drive transformer or trigger transformer or wide-band transformer or signal transformer is a type of transformer optimized and designed for transmission of voltage pulses between its windings and into the load. Pulse transformer is basically used to provide isolation in application where small burst of rectangular pulses are needed.

Application of Pulse Transformer

Pulse transformers can be used for signal transmission, low-power control circuits, camera flashes, radar systems, high-power switched-mode power supplies and other fields where pulsed form of relatively high voltage along with isolation is required.
