Abstract :
A full procedure to model high frequency magnetic components has been developed. A finite element analysis (FEA) tool is used to compute the frequency behavior of the windings, taking into account geometry and frequency effects, like skin, proximity, interleaving, gap and end effects. The capacitive effects among the windings of the components are also taken into account. From these data, a model for the windings is developed by means of discrete components and differential equations that present the same frequency behavior as the actual component. Although the model has been developed for behavioral simulators, it can also be used in electrical simulators
