Würth Elektronik MID-DSLSCK G.fast transformers

Würth Elektronik has released additional G.fast transformers to its MID-DSLSCK family, approved for use with Sckipio chipsets. The transformers cover both the 106 and 212 MHz G.fast profiles and have low insertion loss over the entire frequency range, allowing data rates up to 1 Gbps on lines less than 300 m.

The low-profile, surface-mount transformers have maximum heights between 3.7 and 5 mm, and offer low interwinding capacitance. Featuring 1875 V isolation, and with an operating temperature of -40 to +85°C, the pick-and-place transformers are designed to meet IEC60950-1, EN60950-1, UL60950-1/CSA60950-1 and AS/NZS60950.1 supplementary insulation with 6 kV surge or functional insulation.

In addition to providing isolation, the transformers maintain the quality of the signal over a maximum transmission distance. They enable Sckipio’s SCK1002 AFE and SCK1001 DFE chipsets to deliver high-speed broadband access for G.fast modems and support data speeds up to 1 Gbps on phone lines or coax lines.
