A Comprehensive Review on Planar Magnetics and the Structures to Reduce the Parasitic Elements and Improve Efficiency

Due to the need for highly efficient and compact power electronic converters operate at higher frequencies, traditional wire-wound magnetics are not suitable. This paper provides a comprehensive review of planar magnetic technologies, discussing their advantages as well associated disadvantages. An extensive research literature is presented with aim suggesting models magnetics. Several strategies proposed overcome limitations magnetics, including winding conduction loss, leakage inductance, capacitance. The goal this study provide engineers researchers clear roadmap designing devices.
