Abstract
Using the method of current images, a simple formula is derived that describes the enhancement effect of a thick magnetic substrate of permeability μ on the inductance of planar inductors. It is shown that a maximum of 100% enhancement of the inductance over the corresponding air-core value can be obtained. This occurs in the limit μ≫1, in which case the inductance becomes independent of μ. Previous and new experimental data as well as a finite-element result are found to be in very good agreement with the theoretical result
