ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, ILLINOIS, USA<\/strong>, Friday, June 20, 2014: Hill Tech Sales, a leader in Components for Electrical Power Conversion today posted information on Extreme nanocrystalline core materials for EMC noise reduction.<\/p>\n

New common mode core material FT-8K50D and FT-3K50T<\/p>\n

These materials have come about from advances in casting technique to move from an industry leading 18um thick ribbon to 13um. This reduction in ribbon thickness reduces eddy current losses (most competitors ribbon thicknesses are 20 to 25um) while maintaining high permeability.<\/p>\n

Also optimized is the process of applying magnetic field during annealing.\u00a0 This allows you to use a smaller amount of core volume to provide high suppression performance.<\/p>\n

\n<\/strong>In the past one of the complaints with using\u00a0nanocrystalline cores material for common mode applications was frequency response at higher frequencies. FT-3K50T addresses this issue by increasing the permeability of nanocrystalline cores at higher frequencies; 1 MHz and above, extending high frequency spectrum response by ~40Mhz<\/p>\n

Nanocrystalline cores already exhibit extremely high saturation flux densities, however some applications can still benefit from a higher Bsat. FT-8K50D address this request by further enhancing the saturation flux density by ~ 10% to 1.32T, allowing you to use a smaller core.<\/p>\n
