Abstract: According to the invention a packaged inductive component comprises an inductive element and an electrically insulating packaging enclosing the inductive element. The packaging comprises a first area consisting of a thermally conductive material and a second area consisting of a thermally insulating material. The first area has a first surface being an outside surface of the packaged inductive component. The outer surfaces of the packaged inductive component are free of any electrical potential. The packaged inductive component allows for an improved heat dissipation. In particular, heat generated by power losses in the inductive element dissipates through the first area of the packaging to an outside surface of the packaged inductive component. This leads to an affordable packaged inductive component. The inductive element can be for example an inductor or a transformer.
