MET-24

Audio Transformers Overview

The Tamura MET-24 is a through-hole audio and signal transformer designed for impedance matching in electronic circuits. It features a primary coil impedance of 1.5 kΩ with a center tap and a secondary coil impedance of 600 Ω. The device operates within a frequency range of 300 Hz to 100 kHz and supports an isolation voltage of 500 V. It functions reliably between -20°C and +85°C. Physical dimensions are 10.4 mm in length, 7.87 mm in width, and 11.8 mm in height.

Audio Transformers Feature Summary

• Provides electrical isolation and impedance transformation between circuit stages
• Supports audio frequency signal transmission from 300 Hz to 100 kHz
• Features a center-tapped primary winding configuration

Audio Transformers Applications

• Audio signal processing circuits
• Impedance matching between amplifier stages
• Signal coupling in communication equipment

Audio Transformers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer part number MET-24 against official Tamura documentation to confirm pinout and impedance specifications. Ensure the component meets RoHS requirements if applicable to your assembly process. Cross-reference the isolation voltage rating of 500 V with system safety standards. Confirm that the operating temperature range of -20°C to +85°C aligns with environmental conditions. Check for any ordering suffixes that may indicate variant specifications.

Audio Transformers Selection Notes

Select this component when a 1.5k:600 ohm impedance ratio is required for audio or signal applications. Consider the through-hole mounting style and physical footprint of 10.4 x 7.87 x 11.8 mm for PCB layout constraints. Evaluate the 500 V isolation voltage against circuit safety needs. Verify that the 300 Hz to 100 kHz frequency response covers the intended signal bandwidth. Assess thermal performance within the specified -20°C to +85°C operational range.

Audio Transformers Part Context

The MET-24 belongs to the MET series of audio transformers manufactured by Tamura Corporation. This series includes various models with different impedance ratios and winding configurations, such as the MET-32 and MET-59. These components are generally used for signal coupling and impedance transformation in professional audio and industrial electronics applications.

Audio Transformers Replacement Considerations

The MET-32 offers a 600:600 ohm ratio, while the MET-59 provides a 600:600 ohm ratio with extended temperature capabilities. Direct substitution requires verifying impedance matching and physical compatibility.
