A system and method for placing an inductor on a circuit board. This method includes providing a circuit board, a pedestal, and an inductor, the pedestal has a top surface and a bottom surface and the circuit board has one or more electrical conductors, the inductor having a first inductor terminal and a second inductor terminal. Adhesive is placed on the circuit board and the bottom surface of the pedestal is placed on the adhesive located on the circuit board to secure the pedestal to the circuit board. Next, adhesive is placed on the top surface of the pedestal and the inductor is placed on the adhesive located on the top surface of the pedestal to secure the inductor to the pedestal. The inductor is electrically connected to the circuit board.
An inductor support and circuit board for mounting a conical inductor on a circuit board comprising:
A method for placing an inductor on a circuit board:
A pedestal for supporting an inductor on a circuit board comprising a pedestal having a top surface and a bottom surface, the pedestal attached to the circuit board at a bottom surface of the pedestal, and an inductor secured to the top surface of the pedestal at an angle between 30 degrees and 60 degrees relative to the circuit board.
