Abstract
A magnetic core includes a center section having a substantially uniform thickness, and an edge section connected to and surrounding the center section. The edge section includes a bottom portion and a top portion disposed on the bottom portion, in which the bottom portion has a gradual side surface since the top portion has a steep side surface. The profile of the magnetic core can be more rectangular thereby providing better inductor performance.
