Arrays, Signal Transformers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official documentation to confirm packaging type, as variations exist between tube and tape-and-reel formats. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the manufacturer's latest datasheet. Ensure the ordered variant matches the required inductance tolerance and current ratings for your specific circuit design before finalizing procurement.

Arrays, Signal Transformers Selection Notes

Select this component when dual-coil coupling is required for noise reduction or phase shifting in power electronics. Compare the 32.8 µH parallel inductance against circuit requirements. Evaluate the 106 mΩ DCR for efficiency losses. Ensure the 12.70 mm square footprint fits the PCB layout constraints and that the 130°C operating temperature meets environmental standards.

Arrays, Signal Transformers Part Context

Part of the Polecat series, which focuses on high-performance power inductors. This model serves as a surface-mount alternative to through-hole designs, offering similar electrical characteristics in a smaller profile. It complements other components in Pulse's magnetic solutions portfolio for compact power management systems.

Arrays, Signal Transformers Replacement Considerations

Check for P0180NLT if tape-and-reel packaging is preferred over tubes. Verify electrical equivalence with other coupled inductors having similar 32.8 µH parallel inductance and 2.2 A current ratings. Ensure physical dimensions match existing board space.
