I'm planning on constructing a step-up transformer using a circular ferrite core (see pic) and wondered if it's feasible to cut it into two semi-circles (which will lose some material) to make it easier to wind the 100 and 300 turns and then to glue it back together?
I appreciate that it...
Hi,
I am going to wind a toroid inductor for this circuit,
but would a high permeability core of this type have any downsides?
And is 34 AWG wire fine for this?
Info on core:
Core type MPP
OD 39.90 mm
ID 24.1 mm
HT 14.5 mm
AL value: 740 +/- 8% (nH)
MPP Permeability: 550 (μ)
Wire gauge: 34 AWG...
Hello,
I have seen numerous Youtube videos on super high voltage Joule Thief projects. They are using small one inch ferrite toroids and from single 1.5 volt AA battery power a 3-5 watt 110-220 volt cree LED brightly consuming merely 200 mA of current from the battery! The following link will...
