The present invention relates high power AC steering flux cancelling inductors and processes of making and using same. When properly configured and wired such inductors, separate the AC component and DC component of a high power current thus allowing the smaller AC fraction of the overall current to be carried by much smaller cross-sectional litz wires. Such high power AC steering flux cancelling inductors are more efficient at avoiding core saturation compared to standard inductors, yet they are less expensive without the need for large cross-sectional litz AC carrying wires. In addition to the aforementioned benefits, such high power AC steering flux cancelling inductor permits the levels of AC and DC current to be efficiently monitored as such currents are separated.

A potting box for assembling a transformer comprises an inner wall and an outer wall. The inner wall is sleeved in the outer wall. A bottom plate connected to a bottom portion of the inner wall and a bottom portion of the outer wall to form a potting space for accommodating a first winding and a second winding. An inner side of the outer wall comprises a first support portion for supporting the first winding and an outer side of the inner wall comprises a second support portion for supporting the second winding. An iron core of the transformer penetrates through an inner side of the inner wall.

A coil component includes a cover member containing an ultraviolet curable resin and a filler made of flat particles each having a major axis and a minor axis. The filler preferably contains talc particles. The particles of the filler contained in a portion of the cover member that covers a top surface of the flange are aligned to orient the major axes parallel or substantially parallel to the top surface. The filler contained in the portion of the cover member that covers the top surface has an area ratio of from 15.0% to 50.1% in a section of the cover member taken along a plane that passes through the central axis of a winding core portion and orthogonally intersects the top surface. The grain size of the particles of the filler in D50 is from 1 μm to 30 μm.

A zero-sequence blocking transformer includes a first core part, a first pair of windings wound around the first core part, a second core part and a second pair of windings wound around the second core part, the first core and the second core having a geometry to generate a leakage inductance.

An integrated magnetic element is provided, including a first magnetic-core frame, three second magnetic-core frames, and three coil windings.

A method of fabricating an electromagnet includes obtaining a first flexible PCB that includes one or more first conductive coiled traces and obtaining a second flexible PCB that includes one or more second conductive coiled traces. The first flexible PCB is bent into a shape having at least one curve or corner. With the first flexible PCB having been bent into the shape, the second flexible PCB is then bent into the shape: the second flexible PCB is positioned adjacent to the first flexible PCB to conform with the first flexible PCB. The second flexible PCB may substantially surround the first flexible PCB. An electrostatic deflector may be disposed concentrically with the first and second flexible PCBs.
