Can anyone help me make sense of a ferrite core datasheet?
I need help understanding a datasheet for some ferrite cores I bought to wind transformers on. This is the datasheet: http://www.ferroxcube.com/prod/assets/tx513219.pdf. The main thing I need to know is the inductance per turn of wire on the core so I can design the transformers to minimize inductive reactance and such.

That's what ALis for.
Inductance = AL x n2
You need to know cross sections etc for winding sizes and power ratings, but the fundamental thing is the AL
Inductance is in nH, n is the number of turns.
