Accurately predicting core losses in magnetic components is difficult, and no less challenging in composite inductors. Several core loss models are available, all of which have their merits. This ...
Electrical ratings are interdependent. The current through a component depends on the applied voltage (waveform and duty cycle) and the component impedance. The impedance of a component depends on the ...
