distinguished a) Cracks which are parallel to the magnetic flux path (S1 , S2, S5, S5’, S5’’) These cracks are magnetically not critical The maximum length of a single crack is 33 % (1 /3) of the dimension of the relevant surface which is parallel to the crack In the case of multiple cracks the maximum cumulative length doubles b) Cracks which are perpendicular to the magnetic flux path (S3, S3’, S3’’, S4, S4’) These cracks are magnetically critical They may reduce the relative cross section of the magnetic flux or add an additional air gap into the magnetic circuit The maximum total length of cracks is 20 % (1 /5) of the dimension of the relevant surface which is parallel to the crack c) Cracks which go from one edge to another edge (S6) These cracks may cause chipping during the operation in the circuit The loose particles may cause malfunctions in the circuit Therefore this type of crack is not acceptable in any case The limits for cracks are given in Tables 5, and 3 Flash There shall be no flash extending from the core into the wire slot P u l l -o u t The pull-outs are applicable only for the inner surface where the PCB is seated (as shown in Figures 4, and 6) For planar EL-cores, low profile E-cores and low profile ER-cores, the cumulative area of pullouts of the core shall be less than 20 % of the total respective surface area S5 S2 S3 S6 S1 S3″ S4 S5′ S4′
