Claims
- 1. A method for manufacturing a chip type common mode choke coil, said method comprising the steps of:
- (a) forming a stack of green sheets including:
- (1) a lamination including a plurality of non-magnetic sheets each having conductive lines printed thereon, said conductive lines being coupled together and having a shape which will form primary and secondary coils having respective center loops; and
- (2) first and second magnetic layers located on a top and a bottom surface of said lamination, respectively, and extending over said center loops;
- (b) forming core receiving holes through both said lamination and said magnetic layers in the area of said center loops after said stack has been formed; and
- (c) inserting magnetic material into said core receiving holes.
- 2. A method according to claim 1, wherein said forming step creates said core receiving holes simultaneously.
- 3. A method according to claim 1, wherein said forming step forms each respective core receiving hole in a single operation.
- 4. A method according to claim 1, wherein said inserting step comprises the step of inserting magnetic paste into said core receiving holes.
- 5. A method according to claim 4, wherein said magnetic paste is inserted into said core receiving holes using a squeegee method.
- 6. A method according to claim 4, wherein said step of inserting magnetic paste into said core receiving holes is carried out while a partial vacuum is applied to said core receiving holes.
- 7. A method according to claim 1, wherein each of said non-magnetic sheets is generally planar in shape and is aligned parallel to the other said non-magnetic sheets.
- 8. A method according to claim 7, wherein said core receiving holes are formed along respective axes which lie perpendicular to said planes of said non-magnetic sheets.
- 9. A method according to claim 8, wherein said magnetic layers are respective laminates, each including a plurality of magnetic sheets, each of said magnetic sheets being generally planar in shape and being aligned parallel to said non-magnetic sheets.
- 10. A method according to claim 1, wherein said magnetic layers are respective laminates, each including a plurality of magnetic sheets.
- 11. A method according to claim 1, wherein said inserting step is carried out after said forming step is completed.
- 12. A method according to claim 1, wherein said inserting step is carried out substantially simultaneously with said forming step.
- 13. A method according to claim 12, wherein said inserting step comprises the step of inserting respective plugs of magnetic material into said core receiving holes as said core receiving holes are being formed.
- 14. A method according to claim 1, wherein said inserting step comprises the steps of:
- placing a magnetic member on top of said first magnetic layer in the area of said center loops; and
- using a punch to cut into both said magnetic member and said stack of green sheets to substantially simultaneously form said core receiving holes and place said magnetic material into said core receiving holes.
- 15. A method for manufacturing a chip type common mode choke coil, said method comprising the steps of:
- (a) forming a stack of green sheets including:
- (1) a lamination including a plurality of non-magnetic sheets each having conductive lines printed thereon, said conductive lines being coupled together and having a shape which will form primary and secondary coils having respective center loops; and
- (2) first and second magnetic layers located on a top and a bottom surface of said lamination, respectively, and extending over said center loops;
- (b) placing a magnetic member on the top of said first magnetic layer and extending over the area of said center loops to form an assembly including said stack of green sheets and said magnetic member; and
- (c) using a punch assembly to substantially simultaneously:
- (1) form core receiving holes through said assembly in the area of said center loops; and
- (2) insert magnetic material from said magnetic member into said core receiving holes.
- 16. A method according to claim 15, wherein said punch assembly includes a pair of punches, each punch being used to form a respective core receiving hole.
- 17. A method according to claim 15, wherein each of said non-magnetic sheets is generally planar in shape and is aligned parallel to the other said non-magnetic sheets.
- 18. A method according to claim 17, wherein said core receiving holes are formed along respective axes which lie perpendicular to said planes of said non-magnetic sheets.
- 19. A method according to claim 18, wherein said magnetic layers are respective laminates, each including a plurality of magnetic sheets, each of said magnetic sheets being generally planar in shape and being aligned parallel to said non-magnetic sheets.
- 20. A method according to claim 15, wherein said magnetic layers are respective laminates, each including a plurality of magnetic sheets.
