An inductor has one or more wires and a multipart magnetic core. The multipart magnetic core has magnetic core parts that are adjacent and magnetically coupled. The inductor provides an inductance of at least 40 nH for currents greater than 1 A and less than 60 A, and at least 20 nH for currents of at least 60 A.

A voltage regulator has a switching circuit and a control circuit. The switching circuit receives an input voltage and provides an output voltage and an output current. The control circuit provides a control signal to the switching circuit, such that the output voltage is maintained at a clamp voltage level when the output current is lower than a transition current level, and the output voltage decreases as the output current increases when the output current is higher than the transition current level.
