Abstract
Methods and apparatus for providing enhanced coupled inductive devices. In one embodiment, an inductive device is disclosed that is suitable in Ethernet applications with data speeds exceeding one (1) Gbps. Specifically, the inductive devices described herein possess a high level of magnetic and capacitive coupling between the wires of the windings. Moreover, the inductive devices described herein are suitable for automated processes, thereby reducing the overall costs associated with their manufacture and use. Furthermore, methods for manufacturing and using these aforementioned inductive devices are also disclosed. For example, the aforementioned inductive devices may readily be incorporated into ICMs thereby replacing, in their entirety or in part, manually wound toroidal transformers.
