Title: 42TL002 Availability
Post by: wizestwizard on August 05, 2022, 01:18:51 PM
Not sure if this is the right area of the forum to post this - anyone have any idea where to source 42TL002 transformers? I'm building a PedalPCB Octanaut and all of the usual (and some of the unusual) suspects are either backordered or don't have this particular transformer at all. Also open to suggestions for substitutes. Thanks!

But doesn't the Octonaut use TL002?

Oops, yes, sorry. Currently building a Retrograde as well, that uses the TM022, managed to combine them for this question lol. The 42TL002 is what I'm looking for and is very much impossible to find as far as I can tell. It's backordered on Mouser with expected availability in November

Cant vouch for them.

The 42TM002 should be pretty much exactly the same but 5mm wider on one axis. There are plenty in stock at mouser, so if you think it'll fit okay on your board without cramping everything out, get that one.

FYI, I bought a bunch on Mouser while they were backordered and just got them, so they may be in stock on the site now too. Might not have to wait for November.
