Abstract
A dual-permeability magnetic core structure is provided for use in small, high-frequency inductors and transformers. The dual-permeability corer encloses a winding window containing planar windings and comprises high-permeability and low-permeability sections positioned to produce a highly uniform, or uniformly varying, magnetic field on the winding surfaces. The dual-permeability core produces low winding losses and a low AC-to-DC resistance ratio. Fabrication of the dual-permeability core involves a method of controlling the permeability of a magnetic material and a method of combining structures of two different permeability values.
