Abstract

A research program into the electromagnetic integration of power electronics is evaluated to date. The integration is approached from an energy processing point of view, and the structures developed are predominantly planar in nature. The materials technology developed in order to construct integrated structures is discussed. A number of prototypes that were constructed are presented and discussed. The prototypes vary from the integration of a few reactive components to fully-integrated power converters
