Magnetic flux cancellation inductor pairing

Abstract

In various embodiments, an inductor package comprises a first inductor that is arranged in a first orientation and produces a first magnetic flux in a first direction; and a second inductor that is arranged in a second orientation and produces a second magnetic flux in a second direction that at least partially cancels the first magnetic flux, where the first direction is opposite the second direction. In some embodiments, a printed circuit board assembly comprises a printed circuit board (PCB) layer, a first inductor that is arranged on the PCB layer at a first orientation and produces a first magnetic flux in a first direction, and a second inductor that is arranged on the PCB layer at a second orientation and produces a second magnetic flux in a second direction that at least partially cancels the first magnetic flux.
