How to Create Air Gap in a Ferrite Core Transformer
In this article we are going to understand in detail how we can create air gap in a ferrite core based transformer which we are using in smps circuits like flyback or boost or forward type. Introduction We must understand that ferrite cores have very high permeability and they saturate very fast if we do […]
How to Calculate Ferrite Core Transformers
Calculating ferrite transformer is a process in which engineers evaluate the various winding specifications, and core dimension of the transformer, using ferrite as the core material. This helps them to create a perfectly optimized transformer for a given application. The post presents a detailed explanation regarding how to calculate and design customized ferrite core transformers. […]
Ferrite Core Material Selection Guide for SMPS
In this post I have explained how to select ferrite core material with the correct specifications for ensuring proper compatibility with a given SMPS circuit design Why Ferrite Core Ferrite is a wonderful core substance for transformers, inverters and inductors in the frequency spectrum 20 kHz to 3 MHz, owing to the benefits of reduced […]
