What should be paid attention to in the customization of power inductors
Editor: Gujing Electronics.
As a very widely used inductor category, power inductors can match different power inductors in the face of different user needs. But sometimes we will meet some customers who have customized needs for power inductors. So, in this article, we will see what to pay attention to when customizing power inductors.
Customizing power inductors is a complex project. Generally, in the face of new needs, and the current power inductor cannot be matched, it will enter the process of customization. The key to customizing a power inductor is to determine the parameter information of all aspects of it, such as: inductance value, saturation current, DC resistance, quality factors, etc. All of these parameters will affect the performance of the inductor and the range of applications.
In addition to clarifying the parameters of the power inductor, it is also necessary to select the appropriate core material. Factors such as the magnetic properties, loss characteristics, and thermal stability of the core material also have a direct impact on the application of inductors.
In addition, the way the coil is wound has a significant impact on the performance of the power inductor. This requires the detailed winding method and requirements to be determined when designing the power inductor. It is also necessary to pay attention to the problem of heat dissipation of the power inductor in use, so as to avoid affecting the use effect of the inductor due to excessive temperature.
To put it simply, there are many things that need to be paid attention to when customizing power inductors, and the work of inductor customization is not achieved overnight, and this process requires continuous testing, adjustment, and re-testing!Inductor customization requires close cooperation between the inductor manufacturer and the customer.
