amplifier balun
I've got an output balun saturating of a balanced amplifier.
The core is a 2-hole core nickel-zinc ferrite.
The equation <see attached> calculates the saturation flux density for "toroid" where Ae is the effective area of the core. How do I calculate the effective area of a 2-hole balun. How else do I know the saturation point of a 2-hole balun?
Is there any software that does bifilar and trifilar baluns?
thanks,
GE
