Switching Power Supply Design Optimization By Sanjaya Maniktala Pdf -
In high-frequency optimization, the proximity effect (current crowding in adjacent layers) can skyrocket AC resistance. Maniktala advises:

Warning to engineers: Many websites claiming to offer the "free PDF" often deliver corrupted files, malware, or scanned versions with missing pages (especially the critical diagrams of current waveforms). Use legal academic access points for clean, readable files. Estimate losses: conduction (MOSFET Rds(on)
Many engineers can build a power supply that outputs the correct voltage. However, optimization is where the real engineering happens. switching (turn-on/off energy)
Maniktala emphasizes that magnetics are the heart of the power supply and the primary source of both loss and size constraints.
