Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of network port filter technology, specifically to an integrated transformer combined network port filter component. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of communication technology, ordinary users' home networks have entered the era of gigabit or even 10-gigabit Ethernet. After fiber optic cables are installed in the home, the distribution of the internal network is generally completed through devices such as optical modems, routers, and switches. These devices are equipped with network interfaces because wired network ports (also known as network interfaces) are essential interfaces for wired network transmission between these devices.

[0003] Between the wired network port and the chip, there is a filtering circuit. This circuit requires a network port filter, which provides signal coupling, impedance matching, and electromagnetic interference suppression. In recent years, the industry has gradually developed discrete network port filters, where the various components are broken down into several inductor devices. This approach facilitates fully automated production. However, with the application of these devices in production, the inventors discovered that current discrete inductor and capacitor solutions require two devices to combine for each winding. A single network port needs to be split into eight devices on the board, and customers also need to order two devices simultaneously, which is detrimental to production planning. This incurs material, production, and management costs for both the production and customer ends. Utility Model Content

This improves winding and surface mount efficiency, saves materials, and reduces the device's footprint. Furthermore, the overall structure is simple and easy to manufacture.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] An integrated transformer combined network filter component includes a magnetic core and a winding assembly wound on the magnetic core.

[0013] As a further implementation, the first coil of the winding assembly is wound on the first winding section, and the welding parts at its beginning and end are fixed on the first solder pad and the third solder pad, respectively.

[0018] The sixth coil of the winding assembly is wound on the third winding section, and its beginning and end welded parts are fixed on the seventh and eighth solder pads, respectively.

[0019] As a further implementation, the winding sequence and winding method of the coils in the winding assembly can be adjusted.

[0020] As a further implementation, the first and third coils, as well as the second and fourth coils, can be combined into a single coil during actual winding.

[0021] As a further implementation, the first and second coils are wound in the same direction and have the same number of turns, forming the upper part of a transformer; the third and fourth coils are wound in the same direction and have the same number of turns, forming the lower part of a transformer; and the fifth and sixth coils are wound in the same direction and have the same number of turns, forming a common-mode inductor.

[0022] As a further implementation, the upper part of the transformer, the lower part of the transformer, and the common-mode inductor together form a combined network filter.

The magnetic core includes a sheet magnetic core 30 and an E-shaped magnetic core 10. The sheet magnetic core 30 is glued to the upper part of the E-shaped magnetic core 10, forming a closed magnetic circuit. The E-shaped magnetic core 10 includes three baffles and three winding sections. Multiple solder pads are respectively provided on the three baffles. The winding assembly includes multiple coils, and each end of the coil has a solder part, which is fixedly connected to the corresponding solder pad. The coils of the winding assembly can be wound on the three winding sections of the E-shaped magnetic core 10 in various winding methods.

[0036] The three winding sections are designated as a first winding section 31, a second winding section 32, and a third winding section 33. The first winding section 31 has a first retaining wall 21 and a second retaining wall 22 on both sides. The second winding section 32 has a second retaining wall 22 and a third retaining wall 23 on both sides. The third winding section 33 is located on the second retaining wall 22. Both the first retaining wall 21 and the third retaining wall 23 have two pads, while the second retaining wall 22 has six pads. The two pads on the first retaining wall 21 are designated as first pad 11 and second pad 12. The six pads on the second retaining wall 22 are designated as third pad 13, fourth pad 14, fifth pad 15, sixth pad 16, seventh pad 17, and eighth pad 18. The two pads on the third retaining wall 23 are designated as ninth pad 19 and tenth pad 20.

[0037] The first coil 111 of the winding assembly is wound on the first winding section 31, and its beginning and end soldered parts are fixed to the first solder pad 11 and the third solder pad 13, respectively; the second coil 112 of the winding assembly is wound on the first winding section 31, and its beginning and end soldered parts are fixed to the second solder pad 12 and the fourth solder pad 14, respectively; the third coil 113 of the winding assembly is wound on the second winding section 32, and its beginning and end soldered parts are fixed to the sixth solder pad 16 and the ninth solder pad 19, respectively; the fourth coil 114 of the winding assembly is wound on the second winding section 32, and its beginning and end soldered parts are fixed to the seventh solder pad 17 and the tenth solder pad 20, respectively; the fifth coil 115 of the winding assembly is wound on the third winding section 33, and its beginning and end soldered parts are fixed to the fourth solder pad 14 and the fifth solder pad 15, respectively; the sixth coil 116 of the winding assembly is wound on the third winding section 33, and its beginning and end soldered parts are fixed to the seventh solder pad 17 and the eighth solder pad 18, respectively.

[0038] The first coil 111, second coil 112, third coil 113, fourth coil 114, fifth coil 115, and sixth coil 116 each have a number of winding coils. The first coil 111 and second coil 112 have the same number of turns, the third coil 113 and fourth coil 114 have the same number of turns, and the fifth coil 115 and sixth coil 116 have the same number of turns.

The third coil 113 and the fourth coil 114 are wound in the same direction and have the same number of turns, forming the lower part of a transformer. The fifth coil 115 and the sixth coil 116 are wound in the same direction and have the same number of turns, forming a common-mode inductor. The upper part of the transformer, the lower part of the transformer, and the common-mode inductor together form a combined network filter. This design combines the common-mode inductor and the chip transformer, two independent components in an inductive filter circuit, into a single component, reducing the number of board mounting steps for customers. The customer's part number is reduced from two to one, and the production end only needs to produce one component, saving production time, material costs, and management costs.
