Abstract: Flexible substrate inductive apparatus and methods for manufacturing, and utilizing, the same. In one embodiment, the flexible substrate inductive device includes a square shaped ferrite core having four (4) portions of flexible substrate disposed thereon. The disposal of the conductive traces onto the substrate utilizes highly controlled manufacturing processes such that the characteristics of the device, including the spacing and pitch of the windings, can be accurately controlled. The accurate placement of these conductive traces produces an inductive device with highly consistent performance capabilities as compared with traditional wire wound inductive devices. In addition to the performance capabilities provided via the use of flexible substrates utilizing highly automated processes, the flexible substrate inductive devices disclosed herein minimize/eliminate errors associated with traditional wire wound inductive devices.
