Abstract
A magnetic core is provided. The magnetic core includes a magnetic base and a magnetic plate. The magnetic base includes a first U-core, a second U-core, and a spacing member. The first U-core has a relatively high magnetic permeability, and includes a first surface having a first winding channel defined therein. The second U-core has a relatively high magnetic permeability, and includes a second surface having a second winding channel defined therein. The first and second surfaces are substantially coplanar with one another. The spacing member is connected to the first and second U-cores such that a gap having a relatively low magnetic permeability is formed between the first and second U-cores. The magnetic plate is coupled to the magnetic base such that the magnetic plate substantially covers the first and second surfaces.
