Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards an inductor structure having one or more strips of conductive material disposed around a core. The strips may have contacts at a first end and a second end of the strips, and may be disposed around the core with a gap between the contacts. The inductor structure may be mounted on a surface of a substrate, and one or more traces may be formed in the surface of the substrate to electrically couple two or more of the strips of conductive material to one another to form inductive coils. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
