Abstract

The following examples and embodiments are directed to an induction coil that can be used in a variety of applications, including, for example, induction charging systems. In one example, an induction coil is configured to couple an electrical field between a base device and a mobile device in an inductive charge system. The induction coil includes a coil substrate formed by a molding process. The induction coil also includes a shield element disposed within the coil substrate. The shield element may be formed within the coil substrate as part of the molding process. A conductive winding is also formed within a surface of the coil substrate. In some cases, the coil substrate is formed by an injection-molding process.
