TDK has introduced ferrite ‘E’ cores up to 40 x 80 x 160mm for industrial applications such as motor drives. The largest one is made from N87 ferrite, while most of the rest also come in N88 or N97.

This application note presents the types of core materials used in power inductors. It also briefly discusses the core saturation, core loss, as well as the Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR). This ...

Power architectures with nonisolated voltage regulation continue to evolve, and power inductor designs are fundamental to the success of the new product designs. The trend toward two-stage conversion ...

If you are casually listening to the radio, you probably tune into a local station and with modern receivers and FM modulation, the sound quality is good. But if you are trying to listen to distant or ...

I was involved with high-voltage power supplies in which transformers were wound using 3019-sized ferrite cores. Transformer structures were essentially the following: Figure 1 Pot core based ...

Flyback transformers are designed with all types of cores. Ferrite cores have several advantages such as ease of winding on a bobbin with integral terminal pins, better options for winding design ...
