Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Beyond MHz switching scheme using GaN power device is very effective to realize compact and lightweight DC-DC converter because of utilization of smaller inductor and transformer. Although the possible magnetic core for beyond MHz frequency is Ni-Zn ferrite only, it has a serious issue on the thermal runaway risk. The flake powder composite magnetic core is one of the strong candidates for beyond MHz inductor and transformer. In this study, Fe-Si-B-Nb-Cu nanocrystalline flake powder composite magnetic core was fabricated and clarified high-frequency magnetization mechanism. The composite magnetic core fabricated through a novel fabrication procedure for obtaining lower coercive force and smaller iron loss exhibited an iron loss of 1/6 at beyond MHz compared with the Ni-Zn ferrite. In addition, the planar magnetic devices were fabricated using the composited magnetic core and demonstrated to be effective through applying them to GaN-FET switch beyond 10MHz switching DC-DC converter.
