Novel design for a coreless printed circuit board transformer realizing high bandwidth and coupling

Rogowski coils offer galvanic isolation and can measure alternating currents with a high bandwidth. Coreless printed circuit board (PCB) transformers have been used as an alternative to limit the additional stray inductance if a Rogowski coil can not be attached to the circuit. A new PCB transformer layout is proposed to reduce cost, decrease additional stray inductance, increase the bandwidth of current measurements and simplify the integration into existing designs
