Line Output Transformer Selector Guide

Line output transformers are useful mainly because they allow any output stage circuit topology, whether balanced or unbalanced, to drive any equipment input, whether balanced or unbalanced, without regard to special connection rules or specific cables. Due to the isolation they afford, hum can be substantially reduced. Jensen output transformers are available in a wide variety of package styles and offer the industry’s best combination of bandwidth, level handling, and distortion performance. All have extremely low “leakage” (effective series) inductance that is required to drive very long cables. Various core materials are available based on the source impedance of the driving stage.

Line Level General Purpose 1:1 Bifilar Output Transformer

Unless otherwise noted, all are multifilar construction with either 50% (“L” types) or 80% (“M” types) nickel cores. Because they have no Faraday shield, these types are not recommended as input transformers. Characterized below for 0 Ohm source and 600 Ohm load.
