Distributor of the Year

In recognition of outstanding results in 2014, Elna Magnetics has been named Magnetics' "Global Distributor of the Year". Magnetics, a leading global manufacturer and supplier of soft magnetics cores, recognizes the superior performance of Elna Magnetics with this award.

During 2014, Elna Magnetics was able to attain an outstanding rate of growth, beginning in January and continuing through year-end. Their results were exceptional in a very competitive market.

Congratulations to Elna Magnetics and all those who helped generate the exceptional performance!

Magnetics' XFLUX^® Cores Bulletin Updated

Magnetics' updated XF LUX Cores Bulletin is now available in printed and pdf versions. These distributed air gap cores are made from 6.5% silicon iron powder. XF LUX offers lower losses than powdered iron cores and superior DC bias performance. The soft saturation of XF LUX material offers an advantage over ferrite cores. XFLUX cores are ideal for low and medium frequency chokes when inductance at peak load is critical.

XF LUX toroids are available in a wide range of sizes, E cores in sizes 40x20 mm through 80x44 mm and blocks in sizes 47x41 mm through 80x30 mm. Three permeabilities available are 26 µ,40 µ, and 60 µ.

XF LUX ^® Designs for High Current Applications

A carefully considered power inductor is often a key design element to achieve a small, efficient, and cost-effective converter. T he designer has many choices in powder core materials and shapes, each offering trade-offs among loss, saturation, availability, cost, size, and ease of winding. An understanding of the advantages and disadvantages involved is necessary for making good choices.

Comparison Table

XF LUX is a distributed air gap core with a 6.5% Si Fe powder composition. It has the advantage of high saturation and better DC biasing capabilities. XF LUX is a more economical solution to High Flux.

For a discussion of a design process and parameters, selecting the correct core and calculating theoretical results, using Magnetics XF LUX toroids,blocks and E cores, please refer to Magnetics Sales Engineer Jacob Hughes' presentation
