Abstract

An electrical choke has a magnetic core with a distributed gap. The magnetic core is composed of an iron based, rapidly solidified metallic alloy. The distributed gap configuration is produced by an annealing treatment which causes partial crystallization of the amorphous alloy. As a result of the annealing treatment, the magnetic core exhibits permeability in the range of 100 to 400, low core loss (i.e. less than 70 W/Kg at 100 kHz and 0.1T) and excellent DC bias behavior (at least 40% of the initial permeability is maintained at a DC bias field of 3980 A/m or 50 Oe).

Description

DISTRIBUTED GAP ELECTRICAL CHOKE
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field Of The Invention :
This invention relates to an amorphous metal magnetic core with a distributed gap for electrical choke applications; and more particularly to a method for annealing the amorphous core to create the distributed gap therein.
2. Description Of The Prior Art:
An electrical choke is an energy storage inductor. For a toroidal shaped inductor the stored energy is W=l/2 [(B2Aelm)/(2μoUτ)] where B is the magnetic flux density, A« is the effective magnetic area of the core, lm is the mean magnetic path length, μ is the peπneability of the free space and μ, is the relative permeability in the material.
By introducing a small air gap in the toroid, the magnetic flux in the air gap remains the same as in the ferromagnetic core material. However, since the permeability of the air (μ~l) is significantly lower than in the typical ferromagnetic material (μ -several thousands) the magnetic field strength(H) in the gap becomes much higher than in the rest of the core (H=B/μ). The energy stored per unit volume in the magnetic field is W=1/2(BH), indicating it is primarily concentrated in the air gap. In other words, the energy storage capacity of the core is enhanced by the introduction of the gap. The gap can be discrete or distributed. A distributed gap can be introduced by using ferromagnetic powder held together with nonmagnetic binder or by partially crystallizing an amorphous alloy. In the second case, ferromagnetic crystalline phases separate and are surrounded by nonmagnetic matrix. This partial crystallization mechanism is utilized in connection with the choke of the present invention. Electrical chokes based on the principle of annealing Fe-base amorphous cores have been described in GB 2, 1 11,919k and USP 4,812, 181 In US patent 4,812, 181 there is disclosed a method for achieving flat magnetization loop by subjecting Fe base amorphous cores to a long term (more than 10 hrs) anneal at temperatures higher than 410 °C. The method disclosed therein includes the step of crystallizing the surface of the amorphous ribbon, thereby applying stress on the amorphous bulk of the ribbon.
In GB 2, 117,979 , an electrical choke is made based on heat treating Fe- base amorphous cores. The maximum permeability is reduced to between 1/50 and 1/30 of the original value, (for maximum permeability of 40,000 this treatment results in values ranging from about 800 and 1300) and the amorphous cores exhibit a degree of crystallization, which does not exceed 10% of the volume.
For applications in power supplies for notebook computers and other small devices there is a need for a very small size electrical choke with very low permeability (100-300), very low core losses, high saturation magnetization and which can sustain high DC bias magnetic fields.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention provides electrical chokes having sizes ranging from about 8 mm to 45 mm OD with permeabilities in the range of 100 to 400 and low core losses (less than 70 W/kg at 100 kHz and 0. IT). Advantageously, the magnetic properties are maintained under DC bias (at least 40% of the initial permeability is maintained at a DC bias field of 3980 A m or 50 Oe ).
In addition, there is provided by the present invention a method for heat treating Fe base amorphous alloys in a controlled way to partially crystallize the bulk of the amorphous ribbon and generate microgaps in the cores. As a result of the distributed gaps, the aforementioned properties are achieved.
More specifically, there is provided in accordance with the invention a unique correlation between the degree of crystallization and the permeability values. In order to achieve permeability in.the range of 100 to 400, bulk crystallization of the amorphous core is required, preferably of the order of 10 to 25% of the core volume.
In addition, the present invention requires certain annealing temperature and time parameters and degree of control of these parameters in order to achieve the desired choke properties.
BRIEF DESCRD7TION OF THE DRAWINGS
The invention will be more fully understood and further advantages will become apparent when reference is had to the following detailed description and the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a graph depicting the relation between the permeability of the core and the annealing temperature, the different curves describing material with different crystallization temperatures; Figure 2 is a graph depicting the relation between the permeability of the cores and the annealing temperature for different annealing times;
Figure 3 is a graph depicting the loading configuration of the cores for the annealing in order to achieve temperature uniformity within a few degrees;
Figure 4 is a graph depicting core loss in W/kg of the cores as a function of the DC bias field and the frequency;
Figure 5 is a graph depicting the permeability of the cores under DC bias field conditions;
Figure 6 depicts a typical cross-sectional Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) picture of the ribbon after the annealing; and Figure 7 describes the permeability as a function of the volume percent of crystallinity.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Fig. 1 depicts the permeability of the annealed Fe-base magnetic core as a function of the annealing temperature. The permeability was measured with an induction bridge at 10 kHz frequency , 8-turn jig and 100 mV ac excitation The annealing time was kept constant at 6 hrs. All the cores were annealed in an inert gas atmosphere. The different curves represent Fe-base alloys with small variations in the chemical composition and consequently small changes in their crystallization temperature. The crystallization temperatures were measured by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). A reduction in the permeability is observed with increasing annealing temperature for a constant annealing time. For a given annealing temperature the permeabilities scale according to the crystallization temperature, i.e. the permeability is highest for the alloy with the highest crystallization temperature.
Fig. 2 depicts the permeability of the annealed Fe-base cores with the same chemical composition as a function of the annealing temperature. The different curves represent different annealing times. The plot indicates that for temperatures higher than 450 °C the effect of the annealing temperature dominates the effect of the annealing time.
The appropriate annealing temperature and time combination are selected for an Fe-B-Si base amorphous alloy on the basis of the information in Figs. 1 and 2. This selection can be made provided the crystallization temperature (Tx) and or chemical composition of the alloy is known. For example, for FegoBuSio which has T*=507 °C in order to achieve permeabilities in the range of 100 to 400 annealing temperatures in the range of 420 to 425 °C for 6 hrs are appropriate.
Referring again to Fig. 1, reproducibility and uniformity for a given permeability value are obtained when a temperature variation of less than one or two degrees is maintained. Special loading configurations have been developed for the annealing process so that the uniformity and reproducibility of the temperature in the oven are established. For a box type inert gas oven wire mesh Al plates(2) are stacked according to Fig. 3 and the arrangement is placed in the center of the oven. The Al plates are the substrates that hold the cores(l) during the anneal.
Typical magnetic characterization data for the chokes, such as core loss and DC bias are shown in Figs. 4 and 5. The core loss data are plotted as a function of the DC bias field and the different curves represent different measuring frequencies. The data shown are for cores with 25 mm OD. An important parameter forthe choke performance is the percent of the initial permeability that remains when the core is driven by a DC bias field. Fig. 5 depicts a typical DC bias curve for a core having 35 mm OD. Cross-sectional scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and x-ray diffraction
(XRD) were performed to determine the distribution and percent crystallization of the annealed cores. Fig. 6 depicts a typical cross-sectional SEM indicating that both the bulk of the alloy and the surface are crystallized. This is readily distinguished from the method described in US patent 4,812,181, in which only the surface is crystallized.
The volume percent of the crystallization was determined from both the SEM and XRD data and is plotted in Fig. 7 as a function of permeability. For permeabilities in the range of 100 to 400 bulk crystallization in the range of 5 to 30% is required. Having thus described the invention in rather full detail, it will be understood that such detail need not be strictly adhered to but that further changes and modifications may suggest themselves to one skilled in the art, all falling within the scope of the invention as defined by the subjoined claims.
