3D Transformer for High Frequency Applications
- Summary
- The quality factor of current technologies breaks down at high frequencies, but this new method achieves quality factors greater than 60 for inductors and transformers for a wide frequency range. It also has a very high power transfer ratio, up to 95 percent, making it ideal for use in high performance RF applications.
