Abstract
In recent years, the demand for wide applications of highly regulated, reliable power supplies, and the desire to have
smaller size, lighter weight and higher efficiency of power electronics systems has been increased. The tallest and heaviest
components on printed-circuit-boards are often magnetic components. The answer for miniaturization and material performance can
be planar magnetic technology. This paper focuses on the power planar magnetic circuits, with respect to application
possibilities of these alternative and attractive magnetic components in modern, soft switching, low profile power supplies
