Abstract
A surface mount magnetic component assembly including a magnetic core having a side with a stepped external surface, a coil within the magnetic core, and terminal clips for making electrical connections to the ends of the coil. The ends of the coil extend through the stepped external surface, the terminal clips attach to the stepped external surface, and the external surface is mounted to a circuit board to complete electrical connection with improved reliability. Smaller component sizes with improved manufacturability and consistency result.
