Power Inductor Measurement

The MADMIX inductor measurement system is the standard for measuring power inductors AC-losses under real-life, large-signal triangular flux excitation conditions.

Key Features
  • Hard-switched voltage, triangular current excitation
  • Variable frequency (10kHz-10MHz), voltage (0.5-70V), DC-bias (0-48A), duty-cycle (5-95%) and temperature (-60- +225°C)
  • AC-loss, core/winding-loss measurement
  • Self-heating measurement
  • Coupled-inductor measurement
Benefits
  • Understanding losses in power inductors
  • Safe-operating area determination under real-life operation
  • SPICE Model extraction
  • Non-linear effects investigation such as saturation
Applications
  • Development of inductors
  • Research magnetic materials
  • Characterization of inductors
  • Characterization of magnetic materials (for inductors, BLDC motors…)
  • SPICE model generation for SMPS design
  • Inductor comparison and benchmarking
Use Case
  • Inductor manufacturers
  • Research institutes
  • Power-supply design houses
  • Ferrite / magnetic material manufacturers
  • BLDC motor manufacturers (EV, power tools)
