Saturation and Gain Characteristics of Pulse Transformers Using Various Core Materials

This paper describes a study made on pulse transformers using ferrite and grain oriented steel cores. Characteristics studied are the saturation characteristics at -60 deg. C, +25 deg. C, and +130 deg. C, under a wide range of excitation levels. A set of curves suitable for predicting circuit performance under specified circuit and temperature conditions as well as examples of the use of these curves concludes the paper.
