F12-200-C2

Overview

The F12-200-C2 is a Class 2/3 power transformer from Triad Magnetics featuring a split bobbin design. It has a single primary winding rated for 115VAC or 230VAC input and dual secondary windings providing 6.3V at 400mA in parallel or 12.6VCT at 200mA in series. The unit delivers a maximum power rating of 2.5VA with an isolation voltage of 4200Vrms. It utilizes a laminated core, through-hole mounting style, and PC pin termination. Dimensions are approximately 34.93mm length, 28.58mm width, and 30.15mm height.

Feature Summary

• Split bobbin construction for enhanced safety compliance
• Dual secondary winding configuration supporting parallel or series operation
• Laminated core design for efficient power transformation
• Through-hole mounting with PC pin termination

Applications

• Class 2 power supply circuits
• Low-voltage control systems
• Consumer electronics requiring isolated power
• Industrial equipment with strict safety isolation needs

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix requirements for your application, as variants like F12-200-C2-B may exist. Confirm that the 2.5VA rating and 4200Vrms isolation meet your system's electrical safety standards. Ensure the through-hole footprint matches your PCB layout constraints. Check RoHS compliance status if required by your manufacturing regulations. Validate input voltage compatibility with your local mains frequency and voltage levels before integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact, split-bobbin transformer is needed for Class 2 applications. The dual secondary option allows flexibility between 6.3V parallel and 12.6V series outputs. Consider the physical dimensions and through-hole mounting style for mechanical fit. The 2.5VA power rating suits low-power control circuits. Verify that the 4200Vrms isolation voltage provides sufficient margin for your safety requirements compared to standard isolation transformers.

Part Context

This part belongs to Triad Magnetics' Split Pack series, designed for Class 2 and Class 3 applications. The series emphasizes safety and compactness using split bobbin technology. It is categorized under power transformers with laminated cores. The F12-200-C2 specifically targets low-power, high-isolation needs in consumer and industrial devices where space and safety are critical factors.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Triad Magnetics models within the same Split Pack series with matching VA ratings and winding configurations. Verify equivalent isolation voltage and physical footprint when considering cross-brand alternatives. Ensure any replacement maintains the split bobbin design for Class 2 compliance.
