Original Press Release:
The TransERA 'Mini-line' Series of Epoxy Encapsulated Power Transformers Includes Units with Output as Small as 0.08 VA - Smallest in the World!
Waterloo, ON, October 2005 - TransERA's encapsulated power transformers are notable for their high degree of resistance to heat, humidity/moisture and shock/vibration. Thanks to their very small footprint (23 mm x 22 mm/ 0.906 in X 0.866 in), the 'mini-line' series take up very little space on circuit boards or in equipment housings. TransERA's mini transformers range from 0.08VA to 0.5VA and cover most commonly used primary and secondary voltages. The mini-line series includes the world's smallest encapsulated transformer (height: 12 mm/ 0.472 in), weighing a mere 18 grams (0.935 oz). TransERA's tiny but tough transformers meet UL/CSA requirements for Class 2 power transformers. Their simple, regular shapes make them ideal for installation by automated assembly systems.
The blue mini transformers can be large bulk-ordered directly from TransERA's North American HQ, based in Waterloo/Canada - or, in smaller quantities, through catalogue distributors Mouser and Digi-Key.
