Abstract: A multi-turn coil formed from a single sheet of conductive material and the method of forming same eliminates the use of a weld. The multi-turn coil includes a single sheet of conductive material having at least a first turn in a first plane, and at least a second turn in a second plane, where the first plane is parallel to the second plane. An interconnecting fold interconnects the first and second turns, and any additional turns. The method of forming a multiple turn coil includes providing a continuous strip of conductive material having at least first and second turns extending through substantially 360° and formed in a first plane. The method further includes displacing at least the first turn from the first plane into generally overlapping, parallel relation with the second turn.
