A storage magnetic element, which minimizes the power loss in the planar winding due to the fringe magnetic field associated with a discrete air gap, is presented. The invention describes a construction technique wherein the magnetic core is formed by an E section made of high permeability magnetic material and an I section made by a material capable to store energy due to its distributed gap structure. The I section of the magnetic core in one of the embodiments is covered by an electrically conductive shied to force the magnetic flux into the I section and to minimize the component of the fringe magnetic field perpendicular on the planar winding. In another embodiment of this invention the electrically conductive shield is replaced by a high magnetic permeability material to accomplished the same goal of reducing the magnetic field component perpendicular on the planar winding.

This construction will force the fringe magnetic field around the edge of the gap to be parallel with the planar winding. The embodiments of this invention are aimed at reducing the fringe magnetic field perpendicular on the planar winding, lowering the eddy current induced by this field.

Cutout and / or keep away regions are etched in the winding structure near the gapped center leg of a magnetic core. This reduces eddy current losses caused by the leakage field and improves current uniformity and current sharing between windings thereby increasing converter efficiency. Windings closest to the air gap are suitably formed with both keep away regions and cutouts. Windings a little further away are formed with only cutouts and the windings furthest away are unchanged. This approach keeps the net winding losses low in the presence of a fringing field. The precise configuration is determined by the core structure, air gap and winding arrangements.
