Ferroxcube ferrites are ceramic magnetic materials used in numerous electronic applications. They are characterized by high thermal stability, low magnetic losses, and good adaptability to specific requirements. Typical applications include power electronics, telecommunications, and lighting technology – wherever efficient energy conversion, signal transmission, and a stable power supply are required.
composition
Ferrites consist of iron oxide combined with one or more metal oxides. Commonly used systems are manganese-zinc (MnZn) and nickel-zinc (NiZn).
Magnetic properties
Ferrites offer high saturation induction, low losses, and temperature stability. They are particularly suitable for high-current applications.
Frequency ranges
NiZn ferrites : For frequencies above 1 MHz
MnZn ferrites : For frequencies up to 3 MHz with higher permeability and saturation induction
Power electronics: switching power supplies, DC/DC converters, inverters
Telecommunications: high-frequency filters, antennas
Lighting technology: ballasts, LED drivers
EMC suppression: common-mode and differential current filters
Power generation and distribution: current transformers, power transformers
Ferroxcube offers a wide range of ferrite materials that can be customized to meet specific technical and industry requirements.
