Abstract
A magnetic assembly for mounting to a circuit includes a winding and a core. The winding has a first end, a second end and a wound portion. Further, the core is disposed around at least a portion of the winding. The first end of the winding extends outward from the wound portion to define a linear support and the second end of the winding extends outward from the wound portion on an opposite side of the wound portion to define a point support. As such, the first and second ends of the winding are adapted to mount to the circuit.
