Abstract
Power is supplied on a circuit board assembly by attaching a drum core inductor to a circuit board. The drum core inductor has a first winding wound around the drum core inductor. The first winding has first and second ends coupled to the drum core inductor. A bobbin is attached to the circuit board. The bobbin has a second winding wound around the bobbin. The second winding has first and second ends coupled to the bobbin. The drum core inductor and the bobbin are attached to the circuit board. The drum core inductor is inside an opening of the bobbin. The drum core inductor and the bobbin are detached from each other. A power switch coupled to the first winding is switched to control a transfer of energy from an input power source through the first and second windings to a load coupled to the second winding.
