The fundamental difference between planar transformers and traditional transformers is that, with planar, the windings are made from ‘flat’ copper foil lead frames, or are integrated into a PCB. These are then sandwiched between thin, lightweight modern ferrite cores. This means that the bulky wire-wound 3-D transformer can now be designed out of your product. read more >>
Advantages of Planar Transformers.
As well as the huge volume, profile and weight advantages, planar transformers also provide: superior efficiencies; highly efficient cooling possibilities; valuable manufacturing benefits (inc. unrivalled repeatability & multiple windings options); and can be applied to all switch mode power supply topologies with customized pin positions. read more >>
What Industries benefit from Planar Transformers?
Planar technology is currently widely used in high-frequency battery chargers, inverters, hybrid vehicles, telecommunication rectifiers, solar and wind power, medical and defence applications, inductance charging, welding equipment and many more. read more >>
