Ferroxcube provides optimal materials for different operating conditions. Working temperature, flux and frequency are the key parameters to select the proper material: from standard 100 deg C to 60 in handheld converters or 140 in automotive, or even wide range 20 to 100 or 60 to 140.
Ferroxcube offers a diverse range of ferrite core materials tailored to various applications across industries such as power electronics, telecommunications, automotive, and consumer electronics. Here are some key aspects of their material diversity:
Frequency Range: Ferroxcube manufactures ferrite cores optimized for different frequency ranges, from low-frequency applications like power transformers and inductors to high-frequency applications like RF filters and antennas. These cores are designed to minimize losses and maintain stable performance over a wide frequency spectrum.
Permeability: Ferrite cores come in different permeability levels, which determine their effectiveness in storing magnetic energy. Ferroxcube produces cores with varying permeability to suit different circuit requirements, such as high permeability for low-frequency transformers and low permeability for high-frequency applications like EMI suppression.
Temperature Stability: Thermal stability is crucial for ferrite cores used in harsh operating environments. Ferroxcube offers materials with excellent temperature stability, ensuring consistent performance across a wide temperature range. This feature is particularly important in automotive and industrial applications where temperature fluctuations can be significant.
Saturation Flux Density: Ferrite cores have a maximum magnetic flux density they can withstand before saturating. Ferroxcube provides cores with different saturation flux densities to accommodate various power levels and magnetic field strengths encountered in different applications, from small signal processing to high-power conversion.
Shape and Size: Ferroxcube manufactures ferrite cores in a variety of shapes and sizes, including toroids, E-cores, pot cores, and more. This diversity allows designers to select the most suitable core geometry for their specific application requirements, whether it's minimizing electromagnetic interference (EMI) in a compact space or maximizing energy efficiency in a power converter.
Specialized Applications: In addition to standard ferrite materials, Ferroxcube offers specialized formulations optimized for specific applications, such as wideband transformers, noise suppression, and resonance circuits. These tailored materials often feature unique properties to address the specific challenges of particular applications.
Overall, Ferroxcube's material diversity in ferrite cores enables engineers and designers to find the optimal solution for their magnetic component needs, balancing factors like performance, cost, and manufacturability across a wide range of applications.
