Reduction of eddy current loss induced by leakage magnetic field in transformers and inductors

Abstract

Various examples are provided related to the reduction of eddy current loss induced by the leakage field in transformers and inductors. In one example, a transformer includes a 2D laminated magnetic core; a first winding wound about the 2D laminated magnetic core; and a second winding wound about the 2D laminated magnetic core adjacent to the first winding. The first and second windings can operate at first and second voltage levels. In another example, an inductor includes a 2D laminated magnetic core including two halves separated by airgaps; and a winding wound about the 2D laminated magnetic core.
