Designing a continuous current buck-boost converter using the core geometry

The purpose of this paper is to design a continuous current, buck-boost converter using the core geometry approach. The design will show engineers another method of designing transformers and inductors using this step-by-step approach. There are many advantages of using the core geometry method for designing inductors and transformers over the area product method. The core geometry will give the engineer another tool to better understand transformer and inductor design and therefore, cut the design time way down
