Enable more compact and efficient power supplies and frequency converters

TDK Corporation’s MnZn-based PC200 ferrite material is characterized by low losses at high frequencies. This new material was developed specifically for power supplies and frequency converters that operate with fast-switching power semiconductors on a GaN basis. The new material is optimized for a frequency range from 700 kHz to 4 MHz. Its maximum transmissible power at a switching frequency of 1.8 MHz to 2 MHz and an operating temperature of 100 °C. The ferrite material’s Curie temperature is in excess of 280 °C.

The PC200 ferrite material is particularly suitable for transformers based on ring core or planar topologies. The material is available in ER, EFD, ELP, EQ, I, RM cores and toroids. The outstanding properties of this material will enable considerably more compact power supplies in the future. At the same time, the efficiency is improved due to the low losses of the ferrite material, which is why the use of PC200 contributes to significantly greater energy savings
