Abstract:
The inductive micro-device comprises a rectilinear solenoid winding comprising a plurality of disjointed rectangular turns each having predetermined dimensions. At least one of the dimensions of the turns is variable and is determined individually for each turn according to the position of the turn along the winding and to predetermined magnetic characteristics of the winding, in particular a homogeneous magnetic field and/or an optimum quality factor. Said variable dimension of the turns is chosen from the width, length, thickness, height of turn and the value of the gap between two adjacent turns.
Abstract:
The coil comprises a plurality of non-joined turns, each turn comprising a rectangular bottom flat section in a bottom plane and a rectangular top flat section in a top plane and two rising sections. The turns fill almost all of the enveloping surface of the coil, a minimum isolating gap separating the adjacent turns. The top and bottom sections corresponding to one and the same turn are aligned with respect to one another and have a larger width than the width of the corresponding rising sections. The turns constitute a plurality of substantially parallel coil branches, rising sections of two adjacent branches arranged between the two adjacent branches being arranged alternately in a single plane.
