Hello everyone,
I've been attempting to design a planar coil inductor on PCB for a while now, but I can't seem to find the resources that I need. I've found a few equations that describe single layer planar coils, but for the inductance that I need, one layer would be too large. Also, simply doubling the values of one layer to a second doesn't seem to work, as I get very difference values than what I've measured some prefabbed coils to be. I'm looking to make a coil in the 10-20uH range, with an outer diameter of about 2 inches.
So, if anyone could point me in the right direction I'd be very grateful.
Thanks!
