Abstract: Capacitor assembly, comprising a printed circuit board comprising a first conductive trace and a second conductive trace, and a first row of capacitors comprising a plurality of surface mounted capacitor elements. Each of the plurality of surface mounted capacitor elements comprises a pair of outer electrodes, one of the pair being mounted to the first conductive trace and defining a first junction, and the other one being mounted to the second conductive trace defining a second junction. The first junction and the second junction define a first capacitor longitudinal axis. The first conductive trace has a first current flow direction with a first oblique angle relative to the first capacitor longitudinal axis.

Abstract: An electric field-reducing insulating layer is described for an inductive coil. In some examples, a first coil having at least one first winding is arranged for being driven at a first voltage. A solid insulating layer is adjacent the first coil and has a first surface facing the first coil. The first surface of the solid insulating layer has a first groove between the first winding and the insulating layer, having a width that is smaller than a diameter of the electrical wire. The first groove forms a pocket between the first winding and the solid insulating layer.
