Signal Transformer / Bel SCS Current-Sensing Transformers

Signal Transformer / Bel SCS High-Frequency SMD Current-Sensing Transformers detect the current passing directly through an application’s conductor. Bel SCS Transformers can accurately sense current flow in power supply circuits in a non-invasive way, along with safety and control circuits. This current sensor with a 50kHz to 1MHz frequency range can be used in various applications, including feedback control, load drop/shutdown protection, safety/control circuits, and power-supply DC-DC converters/chargers. This series presents a cost-effective, low-loss approach to measuring currents in high-frequency voltage regulators and switch-mode power supplies.

Features

  • Low DC resistance
  • Different turns ratios
  • Designed for automatic pick and place
  • Surface mount technology

Applications

  • Switching power supplies
  • Feedback control
  • Overload sensing
  • Motor control
  • Load drop/shutdown detection

Specifications

  • 400mΩ to 11.5Ω secondary resistance
  • 20:1 to 125:1 turns ratio
  • 30µH to 3000µH inductance
  • EE Core, 5.0
  • 50kHz to 1MHz frequency range
  • Up to 10A sensed current primary rating
  • -40°C to +125°C operating temperature range
  • Primary current of 10A causes less than +40°C temperature rise above +25°C ambient, higher current causes an increased temperature rise
  • If the product is preserved for more than 1 year below +35°C and humidity 35-65% RH, the solderability of the terminals may deteriorate
