  • Publication number: 20140347825
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a circuit board, including a substrate and a magnetic core, where the magnetic core is embedded into the substrate, at least one turn of a winding conductor wound around the magnetic core is arranged on the substrate, each turn of the winding conductor includes a first end-surface conductor and a second end-surface conductor that are separately arranged on two ends of the magnetic core, and each turn of the winding conductor further includes a first side-surface conductor that penetrates through the magnetic core from an inner side of the magnetic core and a second side-surface conductor that penetrates through the magnetic core from an outer side of the magnetic core. The circuit board and the power conversion apparatus having the circuit board provided by the present invention, achieve larger inductance, save materials, and reduce cost for fabricating a power conversion apparatus.

  • Publication number: 20140004720
    Abstract: A golden finger and a board edge interconnecting device are disclosed. The golden finger includes a printed circuit board (PCB) surface layer and at least one PCB inner layer, where a metal foil of the PCB inner layer is connected to a metal foil of the PCB surface layer through a current-carrying structure, so that a current-carrying channel of the golden finger passes through the PCB surface layer and the PCB inner layer. The board edge interconnecting device includes the foregoing golden finger. In the embodiments, a current-carrying capacity of a PCB in the golden finger is increased without increasing a size and thickness of a copper foil of the PCB in the golden finger, thereby effectively improving the current-carrying capacity of the PCB in the golden finger.
