At Knowles, we offer precision multi-turn trimmer capacitors, fixed and variable inductors, multi-layer capacitors and hardware for applications requiring non-magnetic high performance components.
Like traditional MRI systems, POC MRIs leverage powerful magnets, but here, they’re much smaller. For example, most MRI systems rely on magnets ranging from 1.5T to 3T. In contrast, Hyperfine’s new POC MRI machine features a 0.064T magnet.
Here, we examine the distinguishing characteristics of RF inductors, highlighting how they differ from other inductor types and why they are essential in high-frequency applications.
If you’re looking to dive into the nuanced physics behind MRI, there are plenty of resources available. For our purposes, here are a couple of key physics concepts to keep in mind when we consider MRI machines from an RF perspective.
At Knowles, we will be offering ceramic core inductors designed for applications that demand high-performance, High-Q inductors.
Most wearable technologies feature sensors that detect information and transmit back to smartphone applications where data can be viewed, analyzed and managed.
Here, we’re going to take a step back to discuss inductors and related passive electronic components, including air core inductors and baluns.
Knowles Precision Devices has developed a range of MLC capacitors and surface-mount EMI filters qualified to AEC-Q200 that meets the needs of high reliability and automotive manufacturers.
These air core and variable inductors are ideal for applications where low-profile circuit boards & high Q values are essential. The coils and PTFE cores are made to precision to guarantee a constant winding pitch and consistent relationship to the printed circuit board.
Many applications today increasingly demand miniaturized surface-mount components that can perform reliably at everincreasing working and testing voltages.
Design and test requirements for C0G, X7R, and X5R monolithic ceramic chips.
This blog post provides a comprehensive guide for selecting the appropriate safety capacitors to perform EMI filtering in the PFC stage of an AC/DC converter.
These passive components are engineered to mitigate the risks associated with transient voltages and electrical interference, helping protect both users and equipment from hazards, even in the event of component failure.
Safety capacitors are designed to help safeguard users and equipment from electrical hazards, even in the event of failure.
Knowles offers unparalleled expertise through its Cornell Dubilier brand in the designing and manufacturing of custom pulse power capacitors for life-saving medical devices, industrial lasers, fusion research and critical military applications.
In EVs specifically, power systems are responsible for performing many tasks such as converting AC to DC and DC to AC as well as managing changing power levels in DC/DC conversion.
Knowles Safety Certified capacitors comply with international UL and IEC/EN specifications, with certification by UL, cUL and TUV, and offer the benefits of a lower profile and less board space.
Capacitor roles in electric vehicles & the charging systems they are frequently found inside of.
To select the right technology for your application, it is important to both understand your requirements and the differences between what each material has to offer.
