Frequently Asked Questions

What types of magnetic cores does Magnetics manufacture?
Magnetics manufactures three main types: powder cores (Kool Mu, MPP, High Flux, XFlux), ferrite cores (manganese-zinc soft ferrites), and tape wound cores for various power electronics applications.
What is the difference between Kool Mu and MPP powder cores?
Kool Mu (sendust) cores offer excellent DC bias characteristics and are cost-effective for power inductors. MPP (molypermalloy) cores provide the lowest core losses and highest permeability stability, ideal for high-Q inductors and filters.
What industries use Magnetics components?
Magnetics serves alternative energy, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), telecommunications, aerospace, military, medical electronics, and general power supply applications.
Does Magnetics provide design support and technical documentation?
Yes, Magnetics offers comprehensive technical documents, design tools, and catalogs for ferrite cores, powder cores, and tape wound cores to assist engineers in component selection.
