Abstract :
The electromagnetic integration of a multi-kilowatt resonant DC-DC convertor is described. Both the passive and the active components are integrated into a compact planar structure. The technology required to design and manufacture the structure is presented. A basic electromagnetic analysis of the structure is performed. The converter is constructed and the theoretical results are experimentally verified
