Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an ISDN pulse transformer.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A pulse transformer for ISDN is 20 kHz.
It is necessary to guarantee a high inductance of 20 mH or more in z, and to realize a low capacitance and a low leakage inductance. Conventionally, a bobbin with a winding is combined with a pot type, EI type, EE type, or the like ferrite core. Alternatively, the ring-shaped ferrite magnetic core is provided with windings. Alternatively, the winding core is formed by attaching an insulating case or epoxy coating to a winding magnetic core formed by winding a Co-based amorphous material.

[0003]

Since the recent ISDN pulse transformer is housed in an IC card, the minimum height is 5 mm or less, and in reality, the height is 3.6 mm or 2.8 mm.
The following ultra-thin dimensions are required. The card size is also limited to 54 × 85.6 mm, and it is necessary to mount two transformers for drive and receive within this area. When an ISDN pulse transformer that can be housed in this IC card is to be constructed, the conventional pot type, EI type, and EE type ferrite cores have a magnetic permeability of at most 8000 to 10000, and a high inductance at the required size. To achieve this, a huge number of turns is required, resulting in an increase in leakage inductance or an increase in capacity, so that it is very difficult and unrealistic to satisfy the required characteristics. Further, when a ring-shaped ferrite magnetic core is used, a maximum magnetic permeability of about 15,000 can be obtained, but still a large number of turns is required. Assuming a trial calculation, μi = 15,000
When a ring-shaped ferrite magnetic core of R11-3-4H is used, the minimum diameter is 49 turns with a 0.05φ wire rod, which is not a realistic specification. This estimation is μi = 15000 MI
N. However, the specifications will be more strict when considering variations in characteristics and temperature characteristics. Further, the increase in the number of turns in the ring-shaped ferrite magnetic core causes the following problems. 1) Difficult work and cost increase. 2) The occurrence rate of interlayer insulation failure increases. 3) If the number of windings is only one layer, the effect on the coil height is small. 4) Increase in winding capacity. 5) Increased leakage inductance. On the other hand, the Co-based amorphous winding magnetic core has a magnetic permeability of 10,000.
Although a very high value such as 0 can be obtained, there are the following drawbacks. 1) A typical thin ring-shaped winding magnetic core has a magnetic core height of 3 mm.
However, it is difficult to manufacture a ribbon having a width narrower than that of the ribbon manufacturing and winding of the core, resulting in an increase in cost. 2) When winding a ribbon having a width of 3 mm, the height of the magnetic core varies up to about 3.5 mm because the ribbon is displaced. Furthermore, when the winding is performed in one layer on the ring-shaped magnetic core, an unnecessary space is formed in the center of the winding frame, which hinders downsizing of the coil. Therefore, it has been extremely difficult to satisfy the required characteristics and required dimensions even with the conventional Co-based amorphous winding magnetic core. Further, in recent years, there is a limit to the reduction of the leakage inductance, and a circuit for preventing the leakage inductance has been devised, which makes the required characteristics complicated. This circuit determines the operation of the circuit by detecting the undershoot of the transmission pulse, and does not operate normally when the leakage inductance is small. Therefore, when using this circuit, it is required to increase the leakage inductance to some extent contrary to the original requirement. In general, the leakage inductance of a transformer can be increased by roughly winding the windings and separating the primary and secondary windings. However, if the coil is roughly wound, the value of the leakage inductance cannot be controlled and the quality is deteriorated. On the other hand, if the primary winding and the secondary winding are separated, the winding needs to be divided into two, which leads to an increase in cost. The problems as described above occur, and it has been practically impossible in the past to satisfy both the height dimension and the required characteristics. In view of the above, it is an object of the present invention to provide a pulse transformer for ISDN that satisfies both the height dimension and required characteristics and is easy to produce.

[0004]

As a result of research to solve the above-mentioned problems, it was found that both the height dimension and the required characteristics can be satisfied with the following constitution. The present invention provides a pulse transformer for ISDN, which is configured by arranging two pipe-shaped magnetic cores made of a material of μe = 30000 or more in parallel and providing bifilar windings that pass through two through holes centering on opposite side surfaces. Is. Further, the bifilar winding uses at least three parallel wires, and at least two of them are connected to form a coil by connecting the winding start end and the winding end end to form a transformer having a winding ratio of 1: 2. To do. In addition, at least one of the bifilar windings is colored. The number of turns of the primary coil and the secondary coil of the bifilar winding is set to an integral number to reduce the leakage inductance. Further, the number of turns of at least one coil of the bifilar winding is set to an integral number of +0.5, and the leakage inductance is increased to be used together with the leakage inductance countermeasure circuit. In the present invention, a material having μe = 30000 or more is used, and examples of the high magnetic permeability material include Co-based amorphous material, Fe-based ultrafine crystalline soft magnetic alloy, permalloy, and 6.
5% Si silicon steel etc. are mentioned. When the magnetic core material is a metal material, it is necessary to carry out protection and insulation treatment, so that coating or case encapsulation is preferable.

[0005]

According to the present invention, a pipe-shaped magnetic core is provided,
With this pipe-shaped magnetic core, a high AL value can be obtained and the number of turns can be reduced without increasing the outer diameter of the magnetic core. In addition, since bifilar windings that pass through the two through holes centering on the opposite side surfaces of the two magnetic cores are provided,
The winding does not appear on the outer diameter of the core, and the height dimension corresponding to the winding thickness can be reduced. As the magnetic core size, the outer diameter is 4 mm or less,
The core length is preferably 30 mm or less, whereby a pulse transformer that sufficiently satisfies the characteristics and can be mounted can be obtained. More preferably, the outer diameter is 2.4 to 2.0 mm, the inner diameter is 1.3 to 1.7 mm, and the length is 10 to 30 mm, and the height is 2.8 mm MAX. And a pulse transformer with sufficient characteristics is obtained, which is optimal. The above dimensions are μ
When e = 30000 or more is used, it is difficult to satisfy the characteristics and dimensions by using the ferrite core. The reason is that with ferrite, only about μ = 15,000 can be obtained, and the number of turns is required to be about 1.4 times that of the present invention, and the characteristics cannot be satisfied unless the core is enlarged. Needless to say, coating and enclosing the case is to insulate and protect the core and insulate the coil from coil to coil. Setting the number of turns of the coil to an integral number for reducing the leakage inductance is intended to obtain the following effects. According to the configuration of the present invention, two pipe-shaped magnetic cores are arranged and the bifilar winding is provided around the opposite side faces. The bifilar winding is a configuration for reducing the leakage inductance. However, in the configuration in which the winding start end and the winding end end are both ends in the longitudinal direction of the magnetic core, 0.5
There is a number of turns, which creates an air-core coil and increases the leakage inductance. Therefore, since the winding start end and the winding end end of the coil are concentrated at one end in order to make the number of turns an integer number, and the air-core coil is not formed, the leakage inductance can be reduced. On the other hand, assuming a specific circuit, it is necessary to increase the leakage inductance as described above. In such a case, the requirement can be met by adopting an integer number of turns + 0.5 turns.
