  • Surface mount power inductor component with stacked component accommodation
    Patent number: 10020110
    Abstract: A surface mount power inductor component for a circuit board includes a magnetic body, at least one conductive coil, and surface mount terminations for completing an electrical connection between the conductive coil and the circuit board. One of the body and the surface mount terminations is configured to accommodate a separately provided component in a vertically stacked relation with the separately provided circuit board component being located between the circuit board and the body.
    Type: Grant

  • GAPPED CORE STRUCTURE FOR MAGNETIC COMPONENTS
    Publication number: 20070236318
    Abstract: A magnetic component includes a first monolithic core structure having a plurality of magnetic layers and at least one nonmagnetic layer separating one of the plurality of magnetic layers from another of the plurality of magnetic layers. A first opening extends through the first core structure, and a conductive element establishes a conductive path through the first opening, wherein the nonmagnetic layer separates the conductive element from one of the magnetic layers.
