Hi Folks..
I'm finalising all the parts for the Darkroom timer based on two circuits before I decide on which one to build but have run into a difficulty selecting the Transformer I need.
As I have two circuits to choose from, the transformer the two circuits quote are:
Mains Transformer 6V 1.5VA (PCB Mounted)
and
220VAC 15VAC 1VA PCB Transformer
I've gone to RS Components to source the Transformers @
http://rswww.com/cgi-bin/bv/rswww/s...cdgaddjkikjhmhcefeceeldgondhgi.0&cacheID=ukie
and tried using their filtering system to narrow down the types available but I can't seem to match what they have against what I need.
Could anyone assist in picking out the code for the transformers I require?
Based on my searching
For the 220VAC 15VAC 1VA PCB Transformer, the nearest I can seem to match is the following:

and for the Mains Transformer 6V 1.5VA (PCB Mounted) I get
http://rswww.com/cgi-bin/bv/rswww/s...cdgaddjkikjhmhcefeceeldgondhgi.0&cacheID=ukie
I gather that the VAC is the AC voltage in and the AC voltage out but what is the VA quote and how does it match up with output current.
Many thanks on this longwinded posting.
