It's always a good thing to eliminate manual winding on a pc board. You can do so with the AVX low-profile E-Core series, which mounts on the board and lets you use board tracks for windings of ...

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 want read-only memory today, you might be tempted to use flash memory or, if you want old-school, maybe an EPROM. But there was a time when that wasn’t feasible. [Igor Brichkov] shows us how to ...

The 1.25 x 1.23 x 1.25-in. FerriShield multiturn sleeve snap ferrite core provides high impedance by threading multiple cables. The bisected, snap-on design features serpentine cable threading, ...

Magnetic cores for power supply inductors require careful selection because of the important role they play. An inductor core must be able to retain inductance with dc bias and handle any ripple ...
