Simulating a Generator in 2D
In this model, a rotor with permanent magnets and a nonlinear magnetic material rotates within a stator of the same magnetic material.
The generated voltage in windings around the stator is calculated as a function of time. COMSOL Multiphysics models the rotation with assemblies and identity pai...

Bond Wires to a Chip
Bonding wires connect an integrated circuit to the pins of the package that holds it. These wires introduce relatively large inductances that can introduce crosstalk and distort the signals.
This model calculates the lumped parameters in the form of self inductance and the mutual inductance betwe...

Planar Transformer on a PCB
A planar transformer is a transformer that is integrated onto a printed circuit board (PCB). They can either be manufactured as standalone devices, or integrated into the PCB of a module. The planar structure improves the cooling characteristics and gives the device a low profile. Therefore, the mai...

A Tunable MEMS Capacitor
In an electrostatically tunable parallel plate capacitor, the distance between the two plates can be modified, as the applied voltage changes. The distance between the plates are tuned via a spring, to which one of the plates is attached. For a given voltage difference between the plates, the distan...

Eddy Currents
An AC coil surrounding a metal cylinder induces eddy currents in the cylinder. The driving current in the coil can be specified in two ways: either as an external current density or as equivalent surface currents. In the first case, the skin effect can be studied by giving the coil a non-zero conduc...

Including an Explicit Model of an Inductor in the Simulation of an Amplifier Circuit
When an engineer is designing a new electronic component, like a capacitor or an inductor, the SPICE parameters for that device are not known. They are either extracted from finite element tools, such as COMSOL Multiphysics, or from measurements on a prototype. To speed up the design process it can...
