Nonlinear Power Inductors for Large Current Crest Factors

A practical method is presented: how to adjust the inductance curve of a nonlinear (saturable) inductor with respect to a desired shape. For this purpose, a nonlinear model was developed based on finite element method (FEM). It is shown how a highly efficient construction with low stray fields and m...
