F12-1000-C2 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended operating temperature range for the F12-1000-C2?
  The recommended operating temperature range for the F12-1000-C2 is -40°C to 125°C, with a maximum storage temperature of 150°C.
• Can the F12-1000-C2 be used in high-voltage applications?
  While the F12-1000-C2 is designed for 1000Vrms isolation, it is not recommended for high-voltage applications above 1500Vrms. For higher voltage applications, consider using a transformer with a higher isolation voltage rating.
• How do I ensure proper creepage and clearance distances when using the F12-1000-C2?
  To ensure proper creepage and clearance distances, follow the guidelines in the relevant safety standards (e.g., IEC 60950-1 or UL 60950-1) and maintain a minimum creepage distance of 4.5mm and clearance distance of 3.2mm between the primary and secondary windings.
• Can the F12-1000-C2 be used in Class II or Class III applications?
  The F12-1000-C2 is designed for Class I applications, but it can be used in Class II or Class III applications with proper design and certification. Consult with a qualified engineer or safety expert to ensure compliance with relevant safety standards.
• What is the recommended PCB layout and spacing for the F12-1000-C2?
  To minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) and ensure proper operation, follow good PCB layout practices, such as keeping the primary and secondary windings separate, using a ground plane, and maintaining a minimum spacing of 1.5mm between the transformer and other components.
