AI Technical Summary
Traditional transformers have leakage inductance and distributed capacitance that are difficult to control for batch consistency, resulting in high difficulty in mass production and debugging of circuits. Furthermore, their three-dimensional structure is not suitable for the development trend of high frequency, low loss, high power density, and flat modular design.
The center-tapped transformer is designed using a superposition method, with the secondary winding sandwiched between symmetrical primary windings. Flat wire coils and manganese-zinc series ferrite cores are used, combined with insulating film and pad design to achieve a compact winding layout and low leakage inductance.
It achieves high frequency, high voltage, low loss, low leakage inductance, and flat design, which improves power density and transmission efficiency and simplifies the manufacturing process.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of transformers, and specifically relates to a center-tapped transformer for excessive current. Background Technology
[0002] As electronic circuits evolve towards higher frequencies, higher power densities, higher reliability, and higher integration, higher demands are being placed on DC power supplies. High switching frequencies, low losses, high power density, higher switching frequencies, modularity, and flattening are the development trends for DC power supplies.
[0003] Currently, DC switching power supplies that better meet the requirements generally adopt a soft-switching resonant approach. To reduce the overall size of the power supply, the inductors and capacitors of the resonant circuit are typically provided by the leakage inductance and distributed capacitance of the main transformer (as well as the distributed capacitance of the switching transistor). However, it is difficult to control the batch consistency of the leakage inductance and distributed capacitance of traditional transformers, which brings great difficulties to the actual batch production and debugging of the circuit. In addition, the three-dimensional structure of traditional transformers is no longer suitable for the current trend of flat power supplies. Because its structure is not conducive to heat dissipation, it is difficult to achieve the development trend of high frequency, low loss, high power density, and flat modular design.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments.

Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Example 1
[0022] Please see Figure 1-2 This utility model provides a technical solution: a center-tapped transformer for high current, comprising: a magnetic core 1, a secondary winding 2, a primary winding 3, an insulating film 4, and a solder pad 5. The primary winding 3 and the secondary winding 2 are stacked in the following order: the secondary winding 2 is sandwiched between two symmetrical primary windings 3. The structure is more compact, the spatial distance is reduced, and the amount of leakage flux is reduced.
[0023] The secondary winding 2 uses a primary-side enameled copper flat wire coil, and the primary winding 3 uses a secondary-side enameled copper flat wire coil. The secondary-side-sandwiching-primary-side configuration provides good coupling, low control leakage inductance, and ease of assembly. It also results in smaller distributed capacitance between the primary and secondary windings. This design is suitable for manufacturing high-frequency, high-current transformers. Compared to traditional enameled round wire center-tapped transformers, this type of transformer not only has stronger overcurrent capacity but also has a lower height, meeting the requirements for flattening.
[0024] The primary winding 3 and the secondary winding 2 have only one multi-turn circuit.
[0025] At the bottom of the winding coil, the winding coils are separated from each other by an insulating film 4; the secondary winding 2 and the primary winding 3 are placed inside the magnetic core and fixed with adhesive.
[0026] Core 1 uses a manganese-zinc series ferrite core. It has high permeability and good high-frequency characteristics.
[0027] There is one magnetic core. It can enhance the magnetic field.
[0028] Pad 5 is integrated with the coil. Pad 5 is the lead of the uncoated, tin-dipped winding coil.
[0029] The insulating film 4 is made of polyimide. It can be used for extended periods at 250°C and can operate for several hours at 400°C. The thickness of the insulating film 4 is 0.05 mm.
[0030] This invention features a winding superposition method that provides good coupling, low control leakage inductance, and small distributed capacitance. It also features high frequency, high voltage, high power density, high power transmission efficiency, and low loss. By using a superposition method with flat wire coils, a flat design is achieved. Furthermore, the structure is simple, the process is short, and it is easy to process and install.
[0031] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely specific examples of this utility model. However, this utility model is not limited thereto, and any variations that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
