Well, OK, so do you have any idea what the (approximate) actual values of these coils might be? I sure as hell don't.
Again, let me describe them. I broke up a larger ferrite loop (the kind used to put ribbon cables fhrough to reduce RFI) into pieces. I used a piece about 1/8" square by about 3/8" long as my core, and wound the transformer coils on it (60 turns/40 turns).
Another circuit simulation I ran similar to this one would not work at all with µH values. I haven't tried this one with smaller values (will do so right away).
This is fairly frustrating; I had hoped that some of the "experts" here could have at least hazarded a guess as to what inductance values I'm dealing with here. All I need at this point are ballpark figures. Nobody's health or safety is riding on this.
========================================
OK, further experimentation has revealed that, yes, frequency does increase with reduced inductance! Who woulda thunk it?
At 100µH/220µH, F goes up to about 15kHz.
At 10µH/22µH, F goes up to 180kHz.
I guess by the power of deductive reasoning, assuming Colin's value of 500kHz to be accurate, I could figure what the Ls really are here.
At 3µH/7µH, F is 440kHz. So I guess these are close to the inductances I have, correct?
I will say that as frequency increases, the waveforms get uglier and uglier. Lots of spurious spikes and gaps in the pulses. Not that it really matters in this application. I do wonder, though, how much RFI this little device could potentially be emitting ...
