DESCRIPTION
The 78253 series of converter transformers
are specifically designed for use with the
MAX253 chip set to provide isolated power
supplies. The 5V version can supply 1W and
the 3.3V version can supply 500mW. A
centre tapped secondary winding allows for
full bridge, half bridge or voltage doubling.
The surface mount devices are fully
compatible with CECC00802 to 280°C
which allows them to be placed and reflowed
with IC’s thus reducing time and cost in
production.
