Core loss in inductors can adversely affect system performance. Yet, predicting core loss is a complicated endeavor, especially in complex structures such as coupled inductors. This article examines ...

Schematic diagrams of the nanostructure and magnetic domain structure of a conventional amorphous soft magnetic ribbon (left) and the newly developed ribbon (right). The new material exhibits a ...

An effective transformer design requires a determination of the peak values of the magnetic flux, the magnetic field strength, and the permeability of a core at low and high frequencies. These ...

In switched-mode power supplies (SMPS), magnetic components, namely inductors and transformers, play critical roles. Much of the SMPS design process relies on component specifications and simulation ...

Controlled nanostructure and magnetic domains open the door to next-generation transformers and EV components. (Nanowerk News) A research team from NIMS, Tohoku University and AIST has developed a new ...
