Inductive components are a group of passive components that can be further divided into transformers and inductors.
Transformers are used to increase or decrease the level of voltage and/or create galvanic insulation between the input (such as the power grid in a building) and secondary power terminals (electronic equipment). Inductors have the ability to dampen oscillations in the electric current that passes through them. As a result, inductors are commonly used to filter out electromagnetic interference in electronic equipment.
Products
The Products business area manufactures and sells in-house developed inductive components*, primary transformers and inductors, which are used in AC/DC converters, DC/DC converters and various signal applications. The majority of the components are custom-designed for specific applications, but the business area also offers standard components.
Markets and customers
Operations are conducted within the ETAL Group and sales are handled by subsidiaries and branch offices in Sweden, Estonia, the UK, China and Sri Lanka, and through distribution partners in some 20 additional countries. Production takes place at the company’s own facilities in the UK, Estonia and Sri Lanka as well as through contract manufacturers in Asia.
The business area's customers consist primarily of global companies with manufacturing in many parts of the world. The most important customer segment is the telecom industry. Other customer segments include manufacturers of equipment for power transmission and the defence industry.
Since the majority of these products are custom-designed for specific applications, this allows ElektronikGruppen to establish more long-term partnerships with its customers. In addition, continuous development in new application areas and techno-
logy shifts are stimulating growth in demand for inductive components. One increasingly important area of use for the components is to reduce energy losses in electronic equipment, a trend that is being driven by rising environmental awareness and related demands for energy efficiency.
