AI Thread Summary
Transformers can be designed to operate effectively across a wide frequency range, potentially spanning from kilohertz (kHz) to megahertz (MHz) depending on their construction and the specific application. Broadband transformers can function over several decades, such as from 100 kHz to 10 MHz or 1 MHz to 100 MHz, with specialized designs enhancing their performance. The choice of transformer will depend on factors like impedance and power levels. There is interest in the feasibility of using such transformers in PCB technology, though specific examples may be hard to find. Overall, it is possible to use the same transformer across these frequency ranges with the right design considerations.

Hi to all

is it possible to use the same transformer
in the range of KHZ on the one hand
and on the other the same one for
MHZ?

thanks a lot

Depending on the impedances and power levels, you should be able to get a broadband transformer to work over about 3 decades (like 100kHz to 10MHz, or 1MHz to 100MHz), or maybe more with specialized construction techniques.

Here's the hit list from googling broadband transformer pulse transformer, including some nice design application notes:

What actual frequency range are you interested in?
 
thanks

it is intersting
is there really option to work in decades like you mention
100k then 10 mhz

can it be a coils for PCB technology

i couldn't find some

thanks
 
Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...
I have recently moved into a new (rather ancient) house and had a few trips of my Residual Current breaker. I dug out my old Socket tester which tell me the three pins are correct. But then the Red warning light tells me my socket(s) fail the loop test. I never had this before but my last house had an overhead supply with no Earth from the company. The tester said "get this checked" and the man said the (high but not ridiculous) earth resistance was acceptable. I stuck a new copper earth...
I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
