When current flows through a conductor it becomes an inductor ... but the electrical properties of PCB traces matter a lot as electronic components continue to increase in speed.

Inductor design and the use of magnetic materials are critical components ... to enhance power conversion systems. Additionally, researchers have proposed a novel PCB-embedded coupled inductor ...

Most modern electronic devices consist of several key components: transistors, capacitors, resistors, inductors and diodes ... Active components rely on an external power source to control or modify ...

Typically, the equivalent inductance is about an order of magnitude lower than the power-stage inductor ... which reduces the number of components on the PCB. A higher switching frequency compared ...

Mathieu Renaud, Senior Power Management ... inconvenient of using inductor-based SR is the potential Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI) that may occur with other part of the system. Having a switched ...
