Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0392202A2] In the new digital ISDN communication system, transformation between the mains terminal (2) and terminal units (3) takes place via the so-called S0 interface by means of interface transformers (6, 11). Since the power supply to the terminal units also takes place partly via said transformers, a current imbalance in the conductors (7, 8) or (9, 10) results in a premagnetisation of the transformers. The ISDN requirements imposed on the transformers consequently have to be met even with direct current premagnetisation. Compact transformers with a simple winding structure which meet the ISDN requirements have, according to the invention, a magnet core material consisting of a fine crystalline iron-based alloy containing more than 60 atomic % of iron, more than 50% of whose structure consists of fine crystalline grains with a grain size of less than 100 nm and which has a remanence ratio of less than 0.2 and a permeability in the range from 20,000 to 50,000. <IMAGE>
