    Molded Inductors

    Figure 1: Reference schematic of a buck converter Vin = 24 V; Vout = 5 V

    Increasing current densities and short switching times in MOSFETs are placing ever greater stress on the dielectric strength of inductors. Molded inductors with a distributed air gap based on iron powder enable high inductance values in the smallest of spaces and thus increase the power density. A new test con
