?Division of Spang Company Fundamentals of Tape Wound Core Design Foreword If a trade has tricks, and art has refinements, then designing an efficient magnetic circuit certainly calls for all the imagination and refinements of which the design engineer is capable. To aid in this work, MAGNETICS has set down the following basic information. It primarily deals with the fundamentals of tape wound cores for the purpose of designing magnetic circuits. You will benefit much more from this material if you go through it from beginning to end, rather than attempt to isolate a part here and a part there as much of the information is dependent on each other. In this way you will gain a more complete background for further analysis of designing with tape wound cores. We hope the information will be of help to you.
