BV054-5193.0

Overview

The BV054-5193.0 is a laminated core power transformer manufactured by Pulse Electronics Corporation, designed for through-hole mounting. It features a primary voltage rating of 230V and provides a single secondary output of 12V at 1.333A. The unit has a power capacity of 16VA. This component is engineered for general-purpose power conversion applications requiring reliable isolation between mains input and low-voltage DC output.

Feature Summary

• Laminated core construction for efficient magnetic flux guidance
• Through-hole termination style for secure PCB integration
• Single secondary winding providing isolated 12V output

Applications

• General purpose AC to DC power supply units
• Industrial control system power modules
• Consumer electronics requiring isolated low-voltage DC

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet revision (BV054-5193.0(1).pdf or (2).pdf) matches your design requirements before ordering. Confirm that the 16VA power rating and 1.333A secondary current are sufficient for your load. Ensure the through-hole footprint dimensions align with your PCB layout constraints. Check for any regional compliance certifications required for your target market.

Selection Notes

Select this transformer when a 230V primary input and 12V secondary output are required in a compact laminated form factor. Compare the 16VA rating against your maximum load consumption to ensure adequate headroom. Consider the physical size and lead spacing for through-hole assembly versus surface-mount alternatives if space is limited. Verify insulation class and safety approvals for your application environment.

Part Context

This part belongs to Pulse Electronics' power transformer portfolio, specifically utilizing laminated core technology. It serves as a fundamental component for stepping down mains voltage to usable DC levels after rectification. The BV054 series typically offers cost-effective solutions for standard voltage conversions where high-frequency switching transformers are not mandated.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with ASL171112 for similar voltage ratings, though note its higher 23VA capacity. Verify pinout compatibility and physical dimensions before substituting. Ensure the replacement meets the same 230V primary and 12V secondary specifications.
