F48-050-C2

Overview

The Triad Magnetics F48-050-C2 is a Class 2/3 power transformer designed for printed circuit board mounting. It features a laminated core with a 115V primary winding and a secondary configuration of 48VCT at 0.05A or 24V at 0.1A, delivering a total power rating of 2.5VA. The component utilizes an 8-pin through-hole termination style for secure PCB integration. It is certified to UL/cUL standards, ensuring compliance with safety requirements for low-voltage applications.

Feature Summary

• Provides isolated power conversion suitable for Class 2 and Class 3 circuits
• Supports flexible secondary voltage outputs including 48V center-tapped and 24V configurations
• Designed for direct printed circuit board installation via pin-through-hole technology

Applications

• Low-power control circuits requiring isolated AC-to-AC or AC-to-DC supply stages
• Industrial equipment utilizing Class 2 limited energy sources
• Electronic assemblies needing compact 2.5VA power transformation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation when ordering, as variants like F48-050-C2 may differ in pin count or certification class from the base F48-050 model. Confirm that the required secondary voltage (48VCT vs 24V) matches the design specifications. Ensure the procurement documentation explicitly states UL/cUL Class 2/3 compliance if regulatory adherence is mandatory for the final product assembly.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a small form factor power transformer is needed for PCB-mounted designs. The 2.5VA rating limits its use to low-current applications. Consider the 8-pin footprint for layout planning. Verify input voltage compatibility with the 115V primary specification. This part is appropriate where certified isolation and standard through-hole mounting are preferred over surface-mount alternatives.

Part Context

This transformer belongs to Triad Magnetics' general-purpose power transformer series. It serves as a fundamental component for stepping down line voltage to lower levels for sensitive electronics. The F48 series typically offers reliable performance in industrial and commercial environments. It complements other Triad components by providing standardized voltage options for common control logic and signal processing needs.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the F48-050 variant, though pin configurations may vary. The F48-050-C2-B is another related option within the same family. Always verify electrical parameters and physical dimensions before swapping components to ensure board compatibility and circuit functionality.
