This paper gives a brief introduction of hard ferrites with special reference to strontium ferrite permanent magnet. Processing of, sintered and plastic - bonded magnet has been di scussed. The effect of composition of strontium ferrite powders and that of various additives, such as CaO, Si02, AI 20 ), etc. on the magnetic properties have also been outlined. Magnetic materials can be classified into two groups, per unit of available magnetic energy is low . i.e. magnetically soft (easy to magnetize and Comparative properties of M-type ferrite with that of demagnetize) and magnetically hard materials other magnets are given below in Table 11. (difficult to magnetize and demagnetize). Some Comparison shows that rare earth-based magnets have important hard magnetic materials are ferrites, very high magnetic properties than ferrites, but at Alnicos, rare earth - transition metal compounds. In present they cost more than ferrites. Presently, their the class of magnets, ferrites enjoy a unique position use is limited to these applications which call for due to their commercial importance.

    Switch Mode Power Supplies and Their Magnetics Tutorial

    Datatronic Switch Mode Power Supplies and their Magnetics Many factors must be considered by designers when choosing the magnetic components required in today’s electronic power supplies DATATRONIC DISTRIBUTION, INC. Datatronic In today’s day and age the most often used topology for electronic power supplies is that of the Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS), which is a major user of magnetics. In some applications the “older type” linear supplies are still used, but in the early 70’s SMPS came into being spurred by the development of faster switching transistors. This facilitated the use of much smaller magnetic components and greater efficiencies. DATATRONIC DISTRIBUTION, INC. Datatronic SMPS and their General Magnetic Usage In general, there are four different types of magnetic components that are needed for the typical SMPS. They include the Output Transformer, usually the most noticeable because of its size compared to the others, the Output Inductors, the Input Inductors and the Current Sense Transformer, each with its own important function. DATATRONIC DISTRIBUTION, INC. Datatronic SMPS and their General Magnetic Usage 1.The Output Transformer or “Main” Transformer takes the input voltage that is supplied to its primary winding and then transforms the input voltage to one or more voltages that are the output of the secondary winding or windings. 2. The Output Inductors are used to filter the output voltage so that the load “sees” a filtered DC voltage. DATATRONIC DISTRIBUTION, INC. Datatronic SMPS and their General Magnetic Usage 3. The Input Inductors filter out the noise generated by the switching transistors so that this noise isn’t emitted back to the source.

    INTRODUCTION:- Ferrites Are Ferromagnetic Material Containing Predominantly Oxides Iron Along with Other Oxides of Barium, Stron

    INTRODUCTION:- Ferrites are ferromagnetic material containing predominantly oxides iron along with other oxides of barium, strontium, manganese, nickel, zinc, lithium and cadmium .Ferrites are ideally suited for making device like inductor core, circulators, memory devices and also for various microwave application. Although the saturation magnetisation of ferrites less than that of ferromagnetic alloys, they have advantages such as applicability at higher frequency, lower price and greater electrical resistance. Since 1950, soft ferrites have been widely studied and have become a field of interest of many researches because of their application potential in the modern electronics industry. The electrical and magnetic properties of these materials are structure sensitive and can be altered by doping or substitution. The substitution of aluminium in the inverse ferrites like Nickel, copper and cobalt ferrites have proved to be useful by increasing their saturation, magnetization, resistivity, however, at the cost of decrease of Curie temperature. Cadmium ferrite is a normal spinel ; its magnetic moment per unit cell is zero. Low magnetic high resistive ferrite are so applicable in the high frequency transformer cores. The addition of aluminium which has strong preference for the octahedral sites should exhibit the decrease of the magnetisation because aluminium is nonmagnetic. As aluminium content increases, the magnetic moment of unit cell decreases that means show triangular spin moment, their occurs a reduction in the sub lattice interaction. The removal of iron ions from magnetic sublattice and substitution of the nonmagnetic aluminium ion in its place weakens the magnetism. Due to this substitution improves catalytic, dielectric and magnetic properties, as they possess high resistivity and negligible eddy current losses.

It is easy to understand if the magnetic material is material) and hard ferrite (magnet material). TDK was imagined as an electrical conductive material, the magnetic field established for producing soft ferrite in 1935. as an electric field, and the flux density as an electric current. When a voltage is applied to the common electrical conductive Figure 1 The First Ferrite Core in the World material, a current flows in proportion to the voltage; then, if the voltage is decreased, the current decreases in proportion to the voltage (Ohm’s Law). In the case of the magnetic material, the flux density non-linearly increases against the magnetic field. If the magnetic field is decreased after being increased, the flux density decreases while drawing a different curve from that obtained when the magnetic field is increasing. Therefore, the curve is called a history curve (hysteresis curve). In the case of hard ferrite, when the magnetic field first increases the flux density does not change so much, however, when the magnetic field becomes extremely strong, a sudden flux density flows to create a magnet.

    Magnetic Cores for Switching Power Supplies INTRODUCTION the Advantages of Switching Power Supplies (SPS) Are Well Documented

    ® Division of Spang & Company Magnetic Cores For Switching Power Supplies INTRODUCTION The advantages of switching power supplies (SPS) are well documented. Various circuits used in these units have also been sufficiently noted in literature. Magnetic cores play an important role in SPS circuitry. They are made from a variety of raw materials, a range of manufacturing processes, and are available in a variety of geometries and sizes as shown in Figure 1. Each material has its own unique properties. Therefore, the requirements for each applica- tion of a core in the power supply must be examined in light of the properties of available magnetic materials so that a proper core choice can be made. This article describes the various magnetic materials used for cores in switching power supplies, their method of manufacture, and useful magnetic characteristics as related to major sections of the power supply. Cores can be classified into three basic Figure 1: A Multitude of Magnetic Cores. types: (1) tape wound cores, (2) powder cores, and (3) ferrites.

Drawing on feminist tradi- tions of situated knowing, we designed an electronic quilt and a series of participatory workshops that materialize the work of the core memory weavers. With this case we not only broaden dominant stories of design, but we also reflect on the entanglement of predominantly male, high status labor with the ostensibly low-status work of women’s hands. By integrating design and archival research as a means of cultural analysis, we further expand conversations on design research methods within human-computer inter- action (HCI), using design to reveal legacies of practice Figure 1: Close up view of the Core Memory Quilt. elided by contemporary technology cultures.
