Abstract:
A power connector is provided that is configured to conduct a current and includes a conductive frame including a base structure, an extension structure, and a cap structure that define a current path for the current. The base structure is configured to be coupled to a current supply for receiving the current therefrom. The cap structure is configured to be coupled to an electrical interface of a device to be supplied with the current and outputs the current from the connector to the electrical interface of the device. The extension structure is coupled to and vertically extends between the base structure and the cap structure. The extension structure includes a current constriction region that is configured to cause a defined magnetic field of the current flowing through the current constriction region at a predefined position.
