Mechanical stress and mountingFerrite cores have to meet mechanical requirements during assembling and for a growing numberof applications. Since ferrites are ceramic materials one has to be aware of the special behaviorunder mechanical load.

As valid for any ceramic material, ferrite cores are brittle and sensitive to any shock, fast tempera-ture changing or tensile load. Especially high cooling rates under ultrasonic cleaning and high staticor cyclic loads can cause cracks or failure of the ferrite cores.

For detailed information see data book, chapter “General - Definitions, 8.1”.

Effects of core combination on AL value Stresses in the core affect not only the mechanical but also the magnetic properties. It is apparentthat the initial permeability is dependent on the stress state of the core. The higher the stresses arein the core, the lower is the value for the initial permeability. Thus the embedding medium shouldhave the greatest possible elasticity.

For detailed information see data book, chapter “General - Definitions, 8.1”.

Heating upFerrites can run hot during operation at higher flux densities and higher frequencies.

NiZn-materials The magnetic properties of NiZn-materials can change irreversible in high magnetic fields.

Ferrite AccessoriesEPCOS ferrite accessories have been designed and evaluated only in combination with EPCOSferrite cores. EPCOS explicitly points out that EPCOS ferrite accessories or EPCOS ferrite coresmay not be compatible with those of other manufacturers. Any such combination requires prior te-sting by the customer and will be at the customer‘s own risk.

EPCOS assumes no warranty or reliability for the combination of EPCOS ferrite accessories withcores and other accessories from any other manufacturer.

Processing remarksThe start of the winding process should be soft. Else the flanges may be destroyed.

– Too strong winding forces may blast the flanges or squeeze the tube that the cores can not be mounted any more.

– Too long soldering time at high temperature (>300 °C) may effect coplanarity or pin arrange-ment.

– Not following the processing notes for soldering of the J-leg terminals may cause solderability problems at the transformer because of pollution with Sn oxyde of the tin bath or burned insula-tion of the wire. For detailed information see chapter “Processing notes”, section 2.2.

– The dimensions of the hole arrangement have fixed values and should be understood asa recommendation for drilling the printed circuit board. For dimensioning the pins, the groupof holes can only be seen under certain conditions, as they fit into the given hole arrangement.To avoid problems when mounting the transformer, the manufacturing tolerances for positioning the customers’ drilling process must be considered by increasing the hole diameter.

Display of ordering codes for EPCOS productsThe ordering code for one and the same product can be represented differently in data sheets, data books, other publications and the website of EPCOS, or in order-related documents such asshipping notes, order confirmations and product labels. The varying representations of the ordering codes are due to different processes employed and do not affect the specifications of the respective products. Detailed information can be found on the Internet under www.epcos.com/orderingcodes.

Important notes

The following applies to all products named in this publication:

1. Some parts of this publication contain statements about the suitability of our products for certain areasof application. These statements are based on our knowledge of typical requirements that are often placedon our products in the areas of application concerned. We nevertheless expressly point out that suchstatements cannot be regarded as binding statements about the suitability of our products for aparticular customer application. As a rule we are either unfamiliar with individual customer applications orless familiar with them than the customers themselves. For these reasons, it is always ultimately incumbenton the customer to check and decide whether a product with the properties described in the productspecification is suitable for use in a particular customer application.

2. We also point out that in individual cases, a malfunction of electronic components or failure beforethe end of their usual service life cannot be completely ruled out in the current state of the art, evenif they are operated as specified. In customer applications requiring a very high level of operational safetyand especially in customer applications in which the malfunction or failure of an electronic component couldendanger human life or health (e.g. in accident prevention or life-saving systems), it must therefore beensured by means of suitable design of the customer application or other action taken by the customer (e.g.installation of protective circuitry or redundancy) that no injury or damage is sustained by third parties in theevent of malfunction or failure of an electronic component.

3. The warnings, cautions and product-specific notes must be observed.

4. In order to satisfy certain technical requirements, some of the products described in this publicationmay contain substances subject to restrictions in certain jurisdictions (e.g. because they areclassed as hazardous). Useful information on this will be found in our Material Data Sheets on the Internet(www.tdk-electronics.tdk.com/material). Should you have any more detailed questions, please contact oursales offices.

5. We constantly strive to improve our products. Consequently, the products described in this publicationmay change from time to time. The same is true of the corresponding product specifications. Pleasecheck therefore to what extent product descriptions and specifications contained in this publication are stillapplicable before or when you place an order.

We also reserve the right to discontinue production and delivery of products. Consequently, wecannot guarantee that all products named in this publication will always be available. The aforementioneddoes not apply in the case of individual agreements deviating from the foregoing for customer-specificproducts.

6. Unless otherwise agreed in individual contracts, all orders are subject to our General Terms andConditions of Supply.

7. Our manufacturing sites serving the automotive business apply the IATF 16949 standard. The IATFcertifications confirm our compliance with requirements regarding the quality management system in theautomotive industry. Referring to customer requirements and customer specific requirements (“CSR”) TDKalways has and will continue to have the policy of respecting individual agreements. Even if IATF 16949may appear to support the acceptance of unilateral requirements, we hereby like to emphasize that onlyrequirements mutually agreed upon can and will be implemented in our Quality ManagementSystem. For clarification purposes we like to point out that obligations from IATF 16949 shall only becomelegally binding if individually agreed upon.
