Thermal Design and Optimization for PCB Winding based High Frequency Planar Magnetics

This thesis presents an in-depth investigation into the thermal design and optimization of Planar magnetics. With system engineering approach, starting from a two stage DC/DC converter, and further extended to other types of resonant converters with planar core. The study aims to address the thermal challenges associated with these converters, including heat generation, temperature limitations, and cooling solutions, to improve their performance and reliability.
