Abstract

A planar magnetic device comprising a molded header and a planar core assembly, and a method of making a planar magnetic device. The molded header has first, second, third, and fourth sides and an aperture in the center. The first side has a plurality of terminals positioned through it. The third and fourth sides have upper surfaces that are lower than the upper surfaces of the first side. The planar core assembly comprises planar windings and a core. One side of the planar winding has a plurality of terminals with through-holes so that the primary terminals of the header are positioned through the through-holes. The core surrounds at least a portion of the planar windings. The core is shaped so that a first portion of the core is positioned in the aperture, a second portion of the core is positioned on the upper surface of the third side, and a third portion of the core is positioned on the upper surface of the fourth side.
