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 ...

Suiting switchmode power supplies and other applications, the SPB-700 Series ferrite drum core inductors are available in inductances from 180.0 (15 A) to 22,000 (2.7 A dc). The parts feature a ...

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 ...

Inductors are deceptively simple. However, a closer look reveals underlying complexity. How else can you explain the many types of core materials, types of windings, sizes, geometries and wide range ...

Soft ferrite cores are a type of magnetic core made of ferrite, a ceramic material with high magnetic permeability and low electrical conductivity. These cores can be manufactured in various shapes ...
