A Core-Displacement Method Tunable Inductor using Micro-Electro-Mechanical-Systems Technology

A Review of Tunable Inductors for Power Electronics: Techniques and Applications

“…In addition, due to the continuous movement, the wear out of the mechanical moving parts is another critical concern. The use of MEMS technology, as suggested in [55], can address these problems; nevertheless, it has not yet been proven that medium-or high-power converters may benefit from such a realization.…”
