Claim Text:
1. An inductive device comprising: a core; a first plurality of partial windings disposed at least partially about a first portion of the core; and a second plurality of partial windings disposed at least partially about a second portion of the core, the second portion of the core generally opposite the first portion of the core, wherein the first plurality of partial windings and the first portion of the core are formed to at least partially extend away from a first surface of a substrate, and the second plurality of partial windings and the second portion of the core are formed to at least partially extend through a second surface of the substrate, wherein the first surface is generally opposite of the second surface; wherein the second plurality of partial windings comprises at least two tabs formed to extend along a plane that is radial with respect to the core so that the second plurality of partial windings at least partially supports the core when the at least two tabs are directly or indirectly supported at least in part by the substrate; and wherein each partial winding of the second plurality of partial windings is electrically connected with two partial windings of the first plurality of partial windings to form an electrically continuous winding about the core.
