The improved ferrite tool (Version 5.0) allows application-related parameters to be calculated and represented on graphs. Digitized material data of all ferrites from EPCOS can also be accessed. The new database comprises all current ferrite materials from EPCOS. This also includes N45, T36 and T66 for broadband transformers as well as N51 and N95 for power transformers ...  more

EPCOS has developed a new power ferrite material with an exceptionally low power loss. In contrast to existing materials, N95 offers a constant loss minimum of 310 kW/m³ over a broad temperature range of between 60 and 100 °C. Depending on the temperature this is 15 to 54 percent lower than the losses of conventional power ferrite materials ...  more

EPCOS has developed two new ferrite materials whose improved properties make them suitable for the power range typical of SMPS and current meters. N95 is distinguished by a high flux density of 525 mT at 25 °C and 410 mT at 100 °C.  more

EPCOS has developed a new ferrite material with the designation N51 that significantly reduces the standby losses of switched mode power supplies. The loss minimum lies in the temperature range between 70 and 120 °C with conventional ferrites.  more

In response to customer demands, EPCOS has once again improved its tried and tested ferrite material T38. Until recently, manufacturing techniques restricted initial permeability µ_i in ring cores with a diameter of more than 17 mm to a figure between 7000 and 9000.  more

Components used for interference suppression in automotive electronics must be capable of withstanding higher and higher temperatures. This requirement results not only from progressive miniaturization, but also from the tendency to install more and more automotive electronic components close to sources of intense heat. Thanks to its outstanding thermal properties, the new N45 ferrite material developed by EPCOS is ideal for these applications.  more

In switch-mode power supplies (SMPS), power density is constantly increasing. At the same time, integrated circuits require SMPS with lower and lower voltages but the same power consumption.  more

Progressive miniaturization in power electronics calls for continuous improvement of key parameters such as power dissipation and DC magnetic bias in ferrite materials.  more
