Inverter transformers go slimline
Low-profile packaging enables inverter designs for backlighting in slimmer liquid crystal displays.
TDK Corp has developed and begun mass production of the IVT series of high-reliability inverter transformers The IVT series features a low-profile package to enable inverter designs for backlighting in slimmer liquid crystal displays (LCDs)

TDK and Ansoft Corporation have announced the release of a new library for TDK's capacitor, inductor, common mode filter, and ferrite bead components for use in Ansoft Designer.
The series also features high reliability and a wide operating temperature range, supporting LCD applications in harsh environments such as automotive.
Demand for streamlined LCDs is growing rapidly, with applications ranging from in-car navigation systems to notebook personal computers.
As displays become larger and thinner, however, the electronic components that support them must be mounted in ever-smaller spaces.
TDK developed the IVT series to support the resulting demand for high-voltage low-profile transformers.
This involved a number of innovations in manufacturing techniques, including the adoption of temperature-resistant wire for windings, and laser welding to join the internal contacts.
The IVT series also features a sectionless bobbin to create a compact, low-profile unit.
The 39.0 x 9.0 x 4.8mm package is also suitable for automatic mounters, and is available now in production quantities, as well as sample packs; featuring operating temperatures from -30 to +130C (including temperature increases from self-generated heat), and with leakage inductance from 150 to 300mH.
