Patent ID: 7199695

Claim:
A multiphase voltage converter, comprising: a) a first inductor comprising a non-looping electrical conductor extending, in a first plane, linearly from a first inductor first end to a first inductor second end, along a first linear axis; b) a second inductor comprising a non-looping electrical conductor extending, in a plane parallel to said first plane, linearly from a second inductor first end to a second inductor second end, along a second linear axis; c) a magnetic core having a first top core structure, extending in a direction substantially perpendicular to said first linear direction, crossing over said first inductor at a location between said first inductor first end and said first inductor second end, a first bottom core structure, having a portion crossing under said first inductor at a location between said first inductor first end and said first inductor second end, a second top core structure, extending in a direction substantially perpendicular to said second linear direction, crossing over said second inductor at a location between said second inductor first end and said second inductor second end, and a second bottom core structure, having a portion crossing under said second inductor at a location between said second inductor first end and said second inductor second end.
