The Main Use and Classification Methods of Transformer Bobbins

Hi guys, this blog is still about high frequency transformers. JRPanel would like to introduce you the main use of transformer bobbins and how we classify them.

In the pictures are the transformer bobbins.

Following are the main uses of that JRPanel has summarized for you:

1. The bobbins provide space for winding copper wires in transformers.

2. Wire channel in the bobbins provides path for transformer winding.

3. The bobbins help to fix the core in the transformers.

4. The metal pins in the bobbins are connected to the PCB after soldering, which play an important role in conducting electricity when the transformer is working.

5. The baffle at the bottom of the bobbins isolates the core from the tin stack to avoid poor voltage resistance.

From this it can be seen that the importance of bobbins in transformer is extraordinary.

After understanding the main uses of transformer bobbins, JRPanel is to introduce its common classification methods.

First, classified by shape, bobbins can be divided into two kinds of vertical and horizontal.

Then, the bobbins can also be classified by the type of core used in the transformer.

In this way, there are EP, EFD, ER, EE, EF, PQ and other types, and each type can be classified more finely by core size.

In addition, transformer bobbins can also be classified according to the nature of pin usage and are divided into DIP bobbins and SMD bobbins.

What Exactly Is the Difference Between IP66 and IP67?

What is IP67 and what is the difference between it and IP66? This is probably the question that JRPanel engineers have been asked most often recently. On the online pricing page of JRPanel's website, a new option appears in the Rear Adhesive section: 3M300LSE & Waterproof ( IP67 ). In fact, this is a waterproof process recently upgraded by the JRPanel factory. This process can bring more possibilities to your products, and it also marks that JRPanel's products have reached a new level. So what is the difference between IP67 and the previous IP66 process ? In this article, we will explain in detail. In the previous article Criteria for the Classification Ratings of Ingress Protection , we introduced that the ingress protection rating is composed of two digits. The first digit represents the level of the electrical appliance's ability to prevent intrusion of foreign objects, and the second digit ...

Identify Different Types of Transformer Cores, Based on Materials

Hi guys, this is JRPanel ! In previous blog s, we have introduced several points about High Frequency Transformer, like bobbins and Flat Spiral Coil . In this blog, JRPanel would like to introduce the commonly used magnetic cores in transformers , based on materials. Generally speaking, the material of the core determines the environment in which the transformer is used. A transformer that uses a core of a different material will have its performance affected, may even be non-functional. By material, magnetic cores are generally divided into the several categories . JRPanel will introduce them one by one to help you understand more fully. 1. Manganese Zinc Ferrite Core Mn-Zn core is a soft magnetic core with high initial permeability (2000~15000). The higher the initial permeability, the lower the surface resistance, so it is generally used in circuits below 1 MHz. Mn-Zn core has a high saturation ...

Brief Introduction to Flat Spiral Coil Inductors

Hi guys! Today JRPanel would like to share a few points about Flat Spiral Coil Inductors with you. Basically, a flat coil inductor is an inductor wound with flat copper wire. The picture below is the side view, we can see that each circle of copper wire is arranged very compact. Here are some of the application characteristics of flat coils : 1. High current inductance 2. Lowest DC resistance 3. Can ensure smooth drop of current-resistant inductance 4. Suitable for reflow SMT process 5. Lead-free, RoHS compliant This pciture shows a flat coil product. It is generally used in power supplies, personal computers and other handheld electronic devices . Advantages of F lat C oil I nductors are : 1. Scientific and reasonable space design. 2. Tight and flat between turns ensures the effective cross-sectional area of the wire, which greatly reduces the copper loss ...
