Does my post title seem a little perverted?
......anyways..
I'd like to lower the copper loss in an inductor design.
So, I'm lowering the wire gauge to reduce the resistance.
However...
(I never get something for nothing in electronics..
Aside from running out of room for turns, could the wire be too stiff
to wind?
Some core info:
100 turns
Across: 1.1cm^2
OD: 1.6"
At what gauge does it generally get too difficult to hand wind a
tightly wound toroid??
What's the gauge of the fattest wire that can be found in typical
switchmode power supply magnetics?
What's the gauge limit on a typical toroid winding machine?
