More capacity. More capability.

By Tyee Harpster, President & CEO, Allstar Magnetics

A single underperforming inductor can put an entire mission at risk. In orbit, magnetic components have to survive radiation, vacuum, extreme thermal swings, and the violence of launch — all while keeping a satellite's power system stable and clean.
It's not just the power subsystem that's riding on getting this right, either. From communications to attitude control, the ripple effects of a poorly designed magnetic component can show up in places engineers don't always expect. And as CubeSats and smallsats push for smaller, lighter, more efficient designs, the margin for error keeps shrinking.
Curious what it actually takes to build a magnetic component that can be trusted with a mission?

New on the website: A deeper look at Allstar’s Wound Magnetics

We've just given our Wound Magnetics page a major update, and it's worth a visit. Whether you're specifying a transformer, inductor, coil, or another custom-wound component, the new page walks through how Allstar supports your project from first design conversation through full production, including design support, rapid prototyping, and production-ready sourcing for applications where off-the-shelf parts just don't cut it.

The updated content also spotlights the demanding markets where our wound magnetics show up every day:

  • Space
  • UAV power systems
  • Oil & gas downhole applications
  • Medical devices and robotics
  • Data centers and AI infrastructure
  • Switchgear and power infrastructure

If your application lives in one of these spaces, you'll find details on exactly how we approach the electrical, mechanical, thermal, and environmental requirements that come with it.
