SMD transformer for ultrasonic sensors EP 6 series – TDK Electronics Factories Inc.


TDK Corporation presents the new B78416A* series of compact EPCOS transformers with EP 6 cores for ultrasonic applications.

The series comprises five types with transformation ratios between 1:1:8.42 and 1:1:15. Depending on the type, the new SMD-version transformers offer inductance values between 3 mH and 5 mH and are suitable for frequencies between 52 kHz and 300 kHz. The components are compliant with AEC-Q200, feature highly compact dimensions of just 9.0 x 7.6 x 7.1 mm and are magnetically shielded for better interference suppression. The permissible temperature range lies between -40 °C and +125 °C.

Description

The transformers serve optimal impedance matching between the driver IC and the ultrasonic transmitter or receiver in ultrasonic applications. Typical applications include parking aids, industrial robots, drones, logistics robots, automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and systems for fill level measurement.

Production of electronic components such as transformers and capacitors

TDK Corporation is a subsidiary of TDK Corporation based in Yurihonjo City, Akita Prefecture, Japan, and is engaged in the manufacture and assembly of electronic components. Specifically, the company manufactures ferrite-based magnetic components and other passive components such as transformers and capacitors.

Our Business

TDK is a comprehensive electronic components manufacturer leading the world in magnetic technology.
TDK began its trajectory by producing the world’s first ferrite cores using a magnetic material called ferrite, and the company is now a large manufacturer of components.
Ferrite is a material with many advantageous properties.
Modern TDK commands a wide range of technologies that make daily life more convenient and pleasant. Our products serve a myriad of applications—they provide critical functionality in smartphones, personal computers, electrical appliances, industrial equipment, and automobiles.
TDK components are vital for progress in many areas.
Meanwhile, the power of magnetics continues to inform our global leadership role.

The role played by TDK components —
Unseen enablers of functionality taken for granted.
Many products that surround our daily lives rely extensively on TDK’s wide palette of electronic components. But because these are used internally, they remain mostly unseen by consumers.
If your electronic devices operate as designed and make your day more enjoyable, that means that the components in them are functioning properly.
But without these electronic components, many things that we take for granted these days might never have come about.
