A power module consisting of electronic components disposed within a hollowed-out, hermetically-sealed, multi-layered ceramic capacitor formed of spaced side walls of stacked alternating layers of conductors and dielectrics, the side walls being covered by top and bottom covers.

Integration of ceramic capacitor

A magnetic amplifier package (1) comprises a diode rectifier (6) and a plurality of saturable reactors in the form of toroids (2) having cores (3), gate windings (4) and control windings (5). The diode rectifier and the saturable reactors are located within a housing (7) of the package. The housing has an inlet (18) and outlet (19) for cooling fluid and a passage (20) within the housing for circulating coolant between the inlet and the outlet for cooling both the diode rectifier and the saturable reactors. The magnetic amplifier package is compact, lightweight and efficiently cooled to facilitate its use in aircraft.
