Coil component
A coil component includes a cup, a magnetic core, an electric conductor wound around the core, a cover, which closes the cup, and electric terminal contacts, which are in electric contact with ends of the electric conductor. The core and the electric conductor are arranged in the cup and the cup is filled with potting compound.
1. A coil component, comprising:
a cup;
a soft magnetic core;
an electric conductor wound around the core;
a cover, which closes the cup; and
electric terminal contacts, which are in electric contact with ends of the electric conductor, wherein
the core and the electric conductor are arranged in the cup,
the cup is filled with a potting compound,
the coil component has an electrically insulating film, and
the coil component has a pin, wherein the pin is arranged in an opening in the core, and
the core, the electric conductor and the pin are arranged in the cup, wherein the electrically insulating film is wound around the pin,
the coil component further comprising:
further electric conductors, which are wound around the core; and
further electric terminal contacts, which are in electric contact with associated ends of the further electric conductors.
2. The coil component as claimed in claim 1 , wherein
the core is an annular core.
3. The coil component as claimed in claim 1 , wherein
the cup interior is at least partly covered by an electrically insulating film.
4. The coil component as claimed in claim 1 , wherein
the potting compound contains polyurethane, thermally conductive filler and a hardener and/or contains aluminum oxide powder.
5. The coil component as claimed in claim 1 , wherein
the cup is made of plastic or of aluminum.
6. The coil component as claimed in claim 1 , wherein
the cup is circularly cylindrical.
7. The coil component as claimed in claim 1 , wherein
the cup has a base plate and a sleeve.
8. The coil component as claimed in claim 1 , wherein
the pin has a fixing device, which is designed to fix the coil component mechanically to a circuit board and/or to a heat sink.
9. The coil component as claimed in claim 1 , wherein
the cover is formed as a circuit board, wherein conductor tracks which connect the electric terminal contacts electrically to the ends of the electric conductor are formed on the circuit board.
10. A coil component combination, comprising:
(i) a plurality of coil components, each coil component comprising:
a cup;
a soft magnetic core;
a plurality of electric conductors wound around the core;
a cover, which closes the cup; and
a plurality of electric terminal contacts, each pair of electric terminal contacts being in electric contact with ends of a respective one of the plurality of electric conductors, wherein
the core and the plurality of electric conductors are arranged in the cup,
the cup is filled with a potting compound,
the coil component has an electrically insulating film, and
the coil component has a pin, wherein the pin is arranged in an opening in the core, and
the core, the plurality of electric conductors and the pin are arranged in the cup, wherein the electrically insulating film is wound around the pin; and
(ii) a single cup main body, wherein each cup of the plurality of coil components is formed in the cup main body or is formed by way of the cup main body.
11. The coil component combination as claimed in claim 10 , wherein
the cup main body is formed as a heat sink.
