Abstract
A coupled inductor includes a ladder magnetic core including (a) a first rail and a second rail separated from each other in a first direction and (b) a plurality of rungs separated from each other in a second direction. The second direction is orthogonal to the first direction, and each rung of the plurality of rungs is disposed between the first rail and the second rail in the first direction. The coupled inductor further includes a plurality of windings, where each winding of the plurality of windings is partially wound around a respective one of the plurality of rungs such that each winding of the plurality of windings does not overlap with itself when the coupled inductor is viewed cross-sectionally in a third direction. The third direction is orthogonal to each of the first direction and the second direction.
