Abstract
A magnetic core for inductor includes a first core segment, a second core segment spaced apart from the first core segment by a gap, and a spacer. The spacer is arranged within the gap and between the first core segment and the second core segment. The spacer includes a semi-conductive material to limit arc radius of magnetic flux lines communicated between the first core segment and the second core segment outside the gap. Inductors, flyback transformers and transformer rectifier units, and power conversion methods are also described.
