Abstract

The present invention provides an inductor which has a noise inhibition effect based on a shielding part, guarantees the insulativity and the heat radiation performance between the shielding part anda core body of the inductor and can be made miniature. The inductor (1) comprises the core body (10) made of a metallic magnetic material, a wire wound around the core body, a pair of outer electrodes(12, 13) coupled to respective end portions of the core body, the shielding part 14 arranged so as to cover a top face and three or more side faces of the core body, and an insulating member 15 arranged between the core body and the shielding part and having the thermal conductivity. The thickness of the shielding member is set by applying the electric resistivity and permeability of the shielding part and the frequency of noise desired to be shielded to an expression for determining the depth of a skin of skin effect. The thickness of the insulating member is set according to the breakdown voltage of the insulating member and the voltage with which insulation is desired to be ensured under a use environment of the inductor.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an inductor and a DC-DC converter including the inductor. Background technique [0002] The DC-DC converter includes, for example, a switching element, a diode, an inductor (power inductor), a smoothing capacitor, and the like, and steps down or steps up an arbitrary DC voltage to a desired DC voltage. For example, when a DC-DC converter is used as a power supply circuit of an electronic device in an automobile, noise radiated from an inductor or the like of the DC-DC converter may become a problem in AM broadcasting mounted in a car or the like. In order to suppress noise radiated from the inductor, for example, a shield member covering the inductor is used. [0003] However, as the power inductor of the DC-DC converter, for example, a metal composite type inductor (hereinafter, referred to as a "metal composite inductor") that is small and can cope with a large current is used. The core of the metal composite induct...
