Magnetic-Core Modeling Offers Insight into Behavior, Operating Range, Saturation (.PDF Download)

    Sept. 1, 2015

    It's often necessary to understand the behavior of magnetic components during operation, primarily when applied to chokes or inductors being used for magnetic energy storage and subsequent release. Since most of these components use the magnetic properties of their cores, it’s difficult to build an efficient and reliable electronic device without knowing how the magnetic materials behave in the field created by the inductor's winding...
