PULSE TRANSFORMERS
In selecting isolation transformers to be used with the Simple
System R T, there is a limitation on the maximum amount of leak-
age inductance. If this limit is exceeded, the transmitter rise and
f all times may increase , possibly causing the b us amplitude to fall
below the minimum level required by MIL-STD-1553.In addition,
an excessive leakage imbalance may result in a transformer
dynamic offset that exceeds 1553 specifications.
The maximum allowable leakage inductance is 6.0 µH, and
is measured as follows:
The side of the transformer that connects to the
Simple System RT is defined as the “primary”winding. If one
side of the primary is shorted to the primary center-tap, the
inductance should be measured across the “secondary”(stub
side) winding. This inductance must be less than 6.0 µH.
Similarly, if the other side of the primar y is shorted to the pr ima-
ry center-tap, the inductance measured across the “secondary”
(stub side) winding must also be less than 6.0 µH.
The difference between these two measurements is the
“differential”leakage inductance. This value must be less than
1.0 µH.
Beta Transformer Technology Corporation (BTTC), a subsidiary
of DDC, manufactures transformers in a variety of mechanical
configurations with the required turns ratios of 1:2.5 direct cou-
pled, and 1:1.79 transformer coupled. TABLE 4 provides a listing
of many of these transformers.

NOTES:
1. F or McAIR v ersion of the Simple System R T (BU-6170XX4), only the B-3818 or B-3819 transf ormers (shown in bold in the table) ma y be used.
2. For all other applications, any of the other transfor mers listed may be used.
