SAN DIEGO--()--Pulse Electronics Corporation, a leading provider of electronic components, is pleased to announce the release of its most cost effective planar transformer platform ever. The PH08xxCNL series offer up to 160W of power within a 25 x 22 x 10 mm package size and is the next step in our cost down initiative of the previously announced PH08xxNL series.

“Our first cost down step replaced the traditional multilayer PCB of the PA08xxNL series with a helical flat coil, reducing the direct current resistance (DCR) by 50%, leading to both a 20% increase in power handling capability and 20% reduction in price,” explained Gerard Healy, Product Manager, Pulse Electronics Power Business Unit. “The PH08xxCNL series offers a further 20% price reduction by replacing the inserted pins with a pinned header.”

The PH08xxCNL series has a different pad layout to the earlier series so it is the recommend and most cost-effective solution for new designs. This series is available in T&R packaging with starting prices of just $2.99. Lead time is approximately eight weeks, and samples are available upon request. Further details are available on our datasheet located at http://products.pulseelex.com/files/product_files/P773.pdf, or contact Pulse Electronics Power BU directly at ghealy@pulseelectronics.com or www.power.pulseelectronics.com.
