Bourns Inductor Modeling for Compact DC-DC Converters
Bourns Inductor Modeling for Compact DC-DC Converters presents models for power inductors using solid flat wire for high-power, compact DC-DC converters. It compares the Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) of flat wire inductors to solid round wire inductors, showing superior performance. Theoretical formulations are verified with 2D Finite Element Method (FEM) simulations and experimental tests on power inductor handling.
