Analysis of Transformer Bobbin Types (Part 2) September 24,2025.

1.EF Type Bobbin

(1) Structural Features: The EF type Bobbin is shaped like a combination of the letters "E" and "F", typically featuring three or more pins, which are distributed on one or both sides of the Bobbin. Its magnetic core is E-shaped, with a wider central column and narrower side columns. This structural design enables better control of magnetic field distribution during coil winding, thereby improving the coupling efficiency of the transformer. EF type Bobbins come in various size specifications, with common ones including EF10, EF12, EF16, EF20, and EF25. Different sizes are suitable for transformers of different power levels. For instance, EF10 is applicable to transformers with lower power and is often used in power modules of small electronic products; while EF25 can be used in bobbins of high-power switching power supply transformers.

(2) Application Scenarios: EF type Bobbins are widely used in fields such as switching power supplies, DC-DC converters, AC-DC inverters, LED drivers, LCD power control, laptop power supplies, digital lighting, automotive navigation systems, and security systems. In these applications, EF type Bobbins, with their excellent magnetic field control capability and high power density, can effectively realize the conversion and transmission of electrical energy, meeting the power supply requirements of different devices. Taking the EF16 LED driver transformer as an example, the EF type Bobbin can be used to drive high-power LED lamp beads. By precisely controlling the parameters of the transformer, it achieves stable regulation of the LED current, ensuring the normal operation and long operational life of LED lamps.

(3). Performance Advantages: EF type Bobbins have high magnetic permeability, which allows them to achieve a large inductance in a small volume, thereby improving the power density of the transformer. Meanwhile, their structural design helps reduce leakage inductance and improve the efficiency of the transformer. In addition, EF type Bobbins have high versatility, with a variety of sizes and pin configurations available on the market, facilitating engineers to select and apply them according to different design requirements. Taking the EF20 electronic product charger transformer as an example, the transformer, relying on the three major advantages of the Bobbin—high magnetic permeability, low leakage inductance, and strong versatility—achieves a balance of volume, efficiency, and cost in the 10-18W portable fast-charging field, making it one of the core components in fast chargers for devices such as mobile phones and tablets.
