I need to flatten out my inductor to a 8mm height.
I recall catching glimpses of planar magnet stuff.. Before I go Goggling, anybody know if this is easy to get in small quantities?
How about other ideas... Maybe I could use a bunch of little inductors? Maybe I can construct a core by cutting up plates and rods.? Maybe I could sand down some toroids on a planing machine?
Anybody got any ideas on a DIY construction technique to make pancake like power inductors?
I'm currently using a toroid with a height of 13mm. OD=33.4mm ID=19.62mm Other detail:
2.5mH I=2A (continuous mode smps) ambient temp=25C Core Material:Sen Dust f=80khz Estimated temp rise: 20C D from BC
