MODULAR COUPLED MAGNETIC VOLTAGE REGULATORS

Abstract:

Embodiments disclosed herein include modular transformers that comprise a plurality of interconnected transformer modules. In an embodiment a transformer module comprises a first core, where the first core is conductive, and a second core adjacent to the first core, where the second core is conductive. In an embodiment, the transformer module further comprises a magnetic layer around the first core and the second core. In an embodiment, a first via through the magnetic layer is connected to the first core, and a second via through the magnetic layer is connected to the first core. In an embodiment, a third via through the magnetic layer is connected to the second core, and a fourth via through the magnetic layer is connected to the second core.
