Core Material and Effective Frequency Range
TherearetwoferritematerialoptionsforKEMET
EMICores:Nickel-Zinc(NiZn)andManganese
Zinc(MnZn).Eachcorematerialhasadifferent
resistanceandeffectivefrequencyrange.The
MnZn core material has a lower resistance
comparedtotheNiZn;therefore,adequate
insulationisrequiredbeforeuse.
TheNiZncorematerialistypicallyeffectivefor
frequenciesintheMHzbandrangesuchasthe
FM-band,whiletheMnZncorematerialistypically
effectiveforthekHzbandrangesuchastheAM-
band.SeeFigure1.
It is recommended to measure the actual
frequencyrangeeffectivenessinthetarget
application.
