This paper discusses the design of a miniature electromagnetic induction type air turbine generator with a multilayer ceramic magnetic circuit. The air turbine is fabricated using a micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS) process, which can form high-accuracy, high-aspect-ratio parts. The magnetic circuit is fabricated using a multilayer ceramic technology that can form a three-dimensional conductor pattern into which a magnetic material can be introduced. By combining these technologies, a miniature generator comprising a miniature magnetic circuit with a helical conductor structure and magnetic core is achieved. In this study, a three-phase and a single-phase generator were fabricated, which produced rotational motion and output waveforms. In this paper, the generators are discussed with respect to the rotational motion and the shape of the magnetic circuit.

As portable devices become smaller and more convenient, they increasingly require miniaturized batteries that preserve the light weight of the device while delivering sufficient power. However, miniaturization of conventional magnetic devices is precluded by the magnetic material and helical structure of the coil. To solve this problem, we introduce a multilayer ceramic technology that realizes three-dimensional miniature magnetic devices. The miniature components are fabricated by micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) technology. This paper describes an electromagnetic motor and an electromagnetic induction type air turbine generator developed through MEMS and multilayer ceramic technologies. The fabricated motor is 4.2 [mm] in diameter and 6.0 [mm] in height, runs at 1080 rpm, and has a consumption power of 0.11 [W]. The air turbine generator is 10.6 [mm] long, 10.6 [mm] wide, and 3.6 [mm] high. Connected to a 4 [Ω] load resistor, its output power is 195 [μVA] at a rotational speed of 9000 rpm.
