Analysis and Design Methodology For Pcb and Integrated Circuit Pulse Transformer

This thesis work aims to establish a design procedure for the Coreless pulse transformers based on the design equations determined from the Low and high frequency models for the transformer after making suitable assumptions. These models are used to develop the pulse waveform structure and hence determine the effect of various circuit parameters on the performance of the transformer. The leakage inductance and the parasitic capacitance are major factors affecting the performance of the transformer. Based on the developed equations the appropriate values for the inductance for the given of rise time are determined .With these values as guidelines the PCB /IC transformer has been designed and simulated in the high frequency electromagnetic software. Based on the simplified models and the simulation data the PCB transformer has been fabricated and measured to validate the design methodology.School of Electrical & Computer Engineerin
