INDUCTORS WITH MAGNETIC CORE PARTS OF DIFFERENT MATERIALS

Abstract:

An inductor has one or more wires and a multipart magnetic core. The multipart magnetic core has magnetic core parts that are adjacent and magnetically coupled. The inductor provides an inductance of at least 40 nH for currents greater than 1 A and less than 60 A, and at least 20 nH for currents of at least 60 A.
