The LL1935 is a transformer design for DI "Direct Input" applications, matching high impedance guitar pickups to low impedance microphone preamp inputs, but it is recommended for 1:10 microphone input applications as well. Turns ratio: 1 + 1 : 5 + 5.
The transformer consists of two coils, each with one primary and one secondary winding separated by an electrostatic shield, and a high permeability
mu-metal core. The high impedance windings are wound using a special low capacitance winding technique. The transformer is encapsulated in a
mu-metal case for
magnetic shielding. For best performance, the high impedance side of the transformer (5 + 5) should be connected in series.
