Orthogonal-field electrically variable magnetic device

摘要

An electro-magnetic device for use in applications requiring low- profile components. The device includes a magnetic substrate with a scheme of through-holes in association with a first and second winding, plated or wired, integral to the substrate and wound orthogonal to each other. The first winding comprises the AC inductor/transformer permeability. The second winding in association with an applied DC bias current causes the permeability to vary over a wide controlled operating range.
