Global designer and manufacturer of highly engineered passive components and high-end electromechanical solutions, Exxelia, will exhibit ranges of wound magnetic components at 2017 Applied Power Electronics Conference, Tampa, FL, from 27^th-30^th March. Notable at Exxelia’s booth 623, will be products based on the highly customisable Chameleon Concept Magnetics (CCM) Technology. The CCM technology adapts to most every need, even the harshest environments, including VIGON resistance.

Exxelia designed CCM technology to respond to the growing interest of electronic engineers for inductors and transformers with multiple outputs, high power density and reduced footprint.

Qualified for aeronautic and space applications, the CCM product line features high robustness. The monolithic design provides high mechanical performance, proven by the successfully testing in accordance with MIL-STD-202 (methods 213 and 204).

The series offers five different sizes, allowing optimised component design in a pick-and-place surface mount (SMD) package. Through-Hole (TH) packages are also available upon request. The CCM series is particularly flexible with a number of pins options available, from 2x6 pins for the smallest package, up to 2x10.

CCM transformers and inductors can operate over a wide temperature range with a minimal temperature of -55°C. The standard thermal grade of the technology is 140°C. Thanks to the technology design, the thermal resistance is 30% lower than standard industrial components. The epoxy molding protecting the winding ensures a lower temperature gradient and a better heat dissipation. Each unit is thoroughly tested with a dielectric withstanding strength of 1,500VAC. Component materials meet UL 94-V0 rating.

Exxelia can evaluate losses and related temperature rise thanks to an in-depth knowledge of CCM technology. Thermal resistance data is available for each package size. Exxelia can also manufacture products in CCM technology according to MIL-STD-981.
