Abstract: The elements of electrical circuits, which inductance L can be tuned electrically (the so-called "inductors"), and transforemers are used in modern electronics, radio engineering and low-power energy for galvanic isolation of circuits and converting voltage amplitudes. In this work, new devices of this type have been manufactured and investigated, using the magnetoelectric effect in ferromagnetic-piezoelectric heterostructures. The inductance of the manufactured inductor is tuned by 400% by a control electric field of up to 10 kV/cm applied to the piezoelectric layer of the structure, and by 1000% by an external magnetic field of up to 10 Oe, acting on the structure. The transformer operates in the range of input voltages of 0-8 V, has a power transfer coefficient of 30% and a voltage transformation ratio of 0-14, tunable by a control magnetic field of up to 80 Oe. Methods for calculating the characteristics of magnetoelectric inductor and transformer are described.
