The present invention provides a current transformer having excellent temperature characteristics and realizing high-precision adjustment of the output voltage via gap adjustment and small tolerance, and a method for manufacturing the same. The core component for current transformers of the present invention, comprises an E-type core 40 formed of an electromagnetic steel sheet and having three legs 41, 42, 41 extending substantially parallel to each other and a connecting part 43 connected at each end of the legs, and an I-type core 50 formed of an electromagnetic steel sheet and having the same length as the connecting portion, the I-type core being placed on and bonded to the connecting part of the E-type core to form a single-piece core component.

A medical device includes: an implantable unit configured to be at least partly implanted in the body of a user; a transformer core configured to be arranged at least partly under the skin of the user; and an internal cabling configured to connect the implantable unit to the transformer core. The internal cabling includes a first winding around the transformer core; and an external unit configured to be at least partly arranged outside the body of the user, the external unit including: a power supply circuity and a connector coupled to the power supply circuity configured to supply power from the power supply circuity to the implantable unit via the transformer core. The connector includes a first connector part and a second connector part.

A method for additive manufacturing of an article having a controlled magnetic anisotropy includes: forming a metallic layer of the article using additive manufacturing, the metallic layer having a magnetic anisotropy aligned in a first direction; forming a subsequent metallic layer of the article using additive manufacturing, the subsequent metallic layer having the magnetic anisotropy aligned in a second direction different from the first direction; and repeating the forming of subsequent metallic layers of the article to form at least a portion of the article, each subsequent metallic layer having the magnetic anisotropy aligned in a different direction than a previous metallic layer.

An image processing system or electronic device may implement processing circuitry. The processing circuitry may receive an image, such as financial document image. The processing circuitry may determine a character count for the financial document image or particular portions of the financial document image without recognizing any particular character in the financial document image. In that regard, the processing circuitry may determine a top left score for pixels in the financial document, the top left score indicating or representing a likelihood that a particular pixel corresponds to a top left corner of a text character. The processing circuitry may also determine top right score for image pixels. Then, the processing circuitry may identify one or more text chunks using the top left and top rights scores for pixels in the financial document image. The processing circuitry may determine a character count for the identified text chunks.

An electronic component includes; a magnetic-body core having a plate-shaped portion and a core portion which extends from an upper surface of the plate-shaped portion; a winding wire which includes a wound portion wound by a rectangular wire into an Edgewise winding form and two non-wound portions extending from the wound portion to two distal ends, and the core portion is inserted through the wound portion; and a magnetic exterior body which covers at least the wound portion and the core portion. The two non-wound portions are respectively arranged along a bottom surface and at least one of the side surfaces of the plate-shaped portion. Parts of the two non-wound portions arranged along the bottom surface are electrodes.

A common mode choke (64) comprises a magnetic core (58) and a first (W.sub.ab) and a second (W.sub.cd) winding of insulated wire having the same number of turns wound on the magnetic core. The turns of each winding are numbered consecutively and arranged in at least two layers, of which a first layer of turns is wound directly on the magnetic core and a second layer of turns is wound around a section of the first layer. The two layers are arranged such that the difference between the highest number of a turn in the second layer and the lowest number of a turn in the section of the first layer on which the second layer is wound is less than or equal to 50% of the number of turns in the first layer. In this way, the effect of the parasitic capacitance between the layers is minimized.
