CT02-100

Overview

The CT02-100 is a surface mount current sense transformer manufactured by ICE Components, Inc. It features a 1:100 current ratio and supports a maximum primary current of 18 A. The device operates with a maximum frequency of 1.5 MHz. Key electrical specifications include a DC resistance of 4.8 Ohms and an inductance of 1.8 mH. This component is designed for precise current sensing applications within electronic circuits.

Feature Summary

• Provides accurate current sensing through a defined 1:100 transformation ratio
• Designed for surface mount integration into printed circuit boards
• Capable of handling primary currents up to 18 Amperes

Applications

• Current monitoring in power supply circuits
• Overcurrent protection systems
• Feedback loops in switching mode power converters

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix and package variant against the official ICE Components datasheet before ordering. Ensure the application environment remains within the specified 1.5 MHz frequency limit and 18 A current rating. Confirm that the bipolar application requirement aligns with your system design to prevent operational failure.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-frequency current sense transformer is required for surface mount assembly. The 1:100 ratio suits applications needing significant signal isolation or scaling. Consider the 4.8 Ohm DC resistance impact on circuit efficiency. Validate that the 1.8 mH inductance meets the timing requirements of the target switching frequency.

Part Context

The CT02 series comprises current sense transformers from ICE Components, Inc., based in Marietta, Georgia. These components are standard magnetic parts used for isolation and measurement. The CT02-100 specifically denotes the 1:100 ratio variant within this product line, distinct from other ratios available in the same series.

Replacement Considerations

Consult the official ICE Components substitution guide for verified alternatives. Cross-reference pinout compatibility and electrical parameters such as inductance and ratio when evaluating potential substitutes.
