When applications require performance at high frequencies, ferrite cored transformers and inductors provide alternatives to steel-cored magnetics. Ferrite cores can be produced
from a combination of a variety of materials, most
frequently manganese, zinc, and nickel. The resulting
coil provides both the electrical and mechanical
requirements necessary for high frequency switching
transformers and inductors.
Because of ferrite cores ability to work at high frequencies, eddy current losses are low over large frequency ranges. The small size of ferrites vs. steel transformers means space and weight
advantages are easily realized.
By utilizing ferrites and designing
proper windings and insulation systems, ECC provides
a vast range of high frequency magnetics to meet a
wide number of project requirements. |
