Magnetic Field Varied By Modulating Signal Patents (Class 332/173)
  • Patent number: 10102962
    Abstract: An inductive device is disclosed, including a first wire coupled to a first terminal and to a second terminal, a non-conductive material surrounding the first wire, and a magnetic film. The non-conductive material spans the region from the first terminal to the second terminal. The magnetic film surrounds at least a portion of the non-conductive material between the first terminal and the second terminal. The first wire has a first amount of inductance.

  • Patent number: 9214431
    Abstract: Magnetic coupling of noise sources can have a negative impact on the net performance of sensitive circuits. A magnetic shielding loop can advantageously minimize magnetic coupling associated with a circuit on an integrated circuit (IC) by including on-chip components, off-chip components, and interface components connecting the on-chip and off-chip components. The components can include conductive paths and contact pads on a die, package, and printed circuit board. The magnetic shielding loop magnetically isolates at least one of input terminals and noise-generating elements of the circuit.

  • Patent number: 4987390
    Abstract: A superconducting reversible variable inductor of this invention comprises: a core made of a Type II superconductor having a reversible magnetic permeability variation range in which the magnetic permeability varies reversibly with respect to a variation of a magnetic field of a predetermined strength or less and falling in the range of from a lower critical magnetic field or more to an upper critical magnetic field or less; and one or more coils wound around the core. The superconductor reversible variable inductor has good linear controllability and high speed response of the inductance.

  • Patent number: 4902987
    Abstract: A magnetic induction modulation and frequency multiplication system includes three toroidal coils physically mounted close to one another to provide magnetic flux coupling between them. One of the coils is supplied with a relatively high frequency carrier signal which has been shaped to eliminate one or the other of the positive or negative excursions thereof. A second coil is provided with an audio signal or other suitable input signal. The third coil constitutes the output coil and is utilized to provide signals to a transmitting circuit coupled to a transmitting antenna. The output signal from the third coil constitutes an amplitude modulated and phase/frequency modulated signal directly produced through the mutual inductive coupling of the three coils.
