NANOCRYSTALLINE AND AMORPHOUS CORE (STB05-00)

1. Introduction
Nanocrystalline and amorphous core, with unique combination of high Bs , high µ and lower core loss, have
excellent ratio of properties vs price. They widely used for telecommunication, power electronics, EMC and sensor,
Which is available for high frequency application and small size. Our product made by Nanocrystalline and amor-
phous alloys consist of follow major core types:

Distributed gap FJ-series Fe-base amorphous core for car audio, PFC, differential mode choke and smoothing

choke

With-gap FG and FCG-series Fe-base amorphous core for PFC, differential mode choke and smoothing

choke

WUL Nanocrystalline-series high inductance choke core for common mode EMC choke

WWL Nanocrystalline-series power core with lower loss for SMPS, Inverters and pulse transformer

CL-series Co-base amorphous lower loss core for high frequency power transformer

CB and CZ-series Co-base amorphous core for Mag-Amp and noise suppression devices

CDCT and FCT-series Co-base and Fe-base core for current transformer with and without DC-tolerance

 AMORPHOUS AND MICROCRYSTALLINE
DISTRIBUTED FJ-SERIES FE-BASE AMORPHOUS CHOKE CORES (STB05-01)
Distributed gap FJ-series choke core made from Fe-base amorphous alloy have low leakage flux and core loss
due to avoid concentrate air gap
and have excellend frequency and dc bias characteristics. The series cores are
provided with different permeability
120-1200
and dc bias characteristics
5-100 Oe
in large range
it is
suitable for applications of car audio
PFC
differential mode choke and smoothing choke.The series cores
consist of FJ10
FJ25 and FJ37 as follow

Distributed gap FJ10-series amorphous choke cores for car audio (STB05-01A)

Features
High saturation flux density(1.5T) and high permeability (µ700-1200), good dc bias characteristics, very low leakage
field due to no-gap, excellent frequency and temperature characteristics, low core loss.

Applications
Application to car audio, PFC, differential mode choke and smoothing choke
