Abstract
A magnetic assembly includes a bobbin with two end flanges. A passageway extends longitudinally between the end flanges. An inner core extends through the passageway. The inner core has first and second end surfaces, each end surface proximate to one of the end flanges. A rectangular outer core is positioned around the bobbin with inner surfaces of the outer core close to the outer surfaces of the end flanges of the bobbin. A respective gap is formed between each end surface of the inner core and the adjacent inner surface of the outer core. A protrusion is formed on at least one inner surface of the outer core to control the cavity distance between the inner surfaces of the outer core proximate to the end surfaces of the inner core. The thickness of the protrusion is selectably reduced to increase the cavity distance to control the gaps.
