Hi
have noted the following measurement (from LA7MI) forAmidon
FB43-4301, and wonder if someone knows more available data for actual
ferrite- and iron-powder cores to be used in transmitters?
For a Amidon FB43-4301 the inductance drops by 50% for 1.2At. 3At for
75% reduction. One should keep the DC-current below the value of 0.5A
to keep the reduction below 0.5. In the example above this rule is
used, but the best is to use push-pull arrangement and the DC
magnitation is kept to a minimum level. The inductance reduction is
stored and the effect is called remanence, cores used for direct
current should have air-gap
Will write a page -
