FIX / REFERENCE(S)

Warning

The Peak flux density (BP) is below 1000 Gauss.

 

The transformer design is not optimal.  The core size may be easily decreased.

  • Select a smaller core size.

  • Reduce the number of both the primary (NP) and the secondary (NS) turns.

  • Decrease the current waveform parameter (KP), which will increase the primary winding inductance (LP).
