Transformer drivers
Compact, customizable and cost-effective transformer drivers
Our small-form-factor push-pull transformer drivers provide a simple power-supply alternative to integrated, isolated power solutions with low electromagnetic interference (EMI). Designed to drive small-form-factor center-tapped transformers, our transformer drivers offer highly efficient, customizable and flexible design options to help reduce system costs and improve reliability, supporting automotive HEV/EV applications that require size-sensitive or low-emission devices and grid infrastructure applications that produce high system noise.
