Ferrite & Iron Powder Toroid Info Sheet

Ferrite & Iron Powder Toroid Info
Page 1
Toroid notes:
Apart from the physical dimensions of a toroid (outside and inside diameter, thickness)
there is a value given for each particular core size and material, which is usually called
the AL value, and is the manufacturers inductance index for the core. Manufacturers
data for iron powder and ferrite cores are in the data tables and show all the required
information. The AL figure for iron powder cores is given as uH/100 turns, but for
ferrite cores it is quoted as mH/1000 turns. Note that many other manufacturers quote
AL as nH/t2 for both types of material. The conversion from uH/100 turns to nH/t2 gives
a result which is divided by 10. The relevant AL value is used in many calculations
involving cores. One of the most common uses is to calculate the turns required to
produce a given value of inductance on a particular core, as shown below:
Iron powder: turns = 100 ((desired L/AL) 0.5) (where L in uH)
Ferrite: turns = 1000 ((desired L/AL) 0.5) (where L in mH)
Note: doubling the turns produces four times the inductance.

1. Value averaged from -55 to +125C.

2. Mainly used for dc chokes, differential-mode chokes, power factor correction
inductors, continuous-mode flyback inductors, light dimmer chokes and other
EMI/RFI applications.
3. Non-linear. #17 has stable temp coeff., but provides about 10% lower Q than #12.
