This paper presents an optimal design of the slim type high frequency transformer used in the LLC DC to DC resonant converter for 65-inch UHD-TV with the rated power of 315W. This paper also performs an optimal design of the slim type high frequency through core loss analysis, AC winding loss analysis, and optimization design of the winding arrangement of the LLC resonant transformer. Particularly, the high-efficiency and slim type high frequency transformer based on the obtained results from theoretical analysis in this paper is constructed in the interleaved and vertical winding structures of its transformer to realize the winding method of automatic type and minimize AC winding loss. The primary and secondary windings of the slim type high frequency transformer the vertical winding structure proposed in this paper used the Litz-wire windings, PCB and copper plate windings, respectively. Finally, an optimal design of the slim type high frequency transformer proposed in this paper was carried out through the experimental results to confirm the validity of theoretical analysis based on the simulation results using Maxwell 2D and 3D tool.

1MVA high temperature superconducting (HTS) transformer with double pancake windings made of BSCCO-2223 HTS tapes was designed and manufactured. And prototype transformer with the same capacity was manufactured also. The each rated voltage of the HTS transformer is 22.9 kV and 6.6 kV. Four parallel BSCCO-2223 HTS tapes were wound in the double pancake windings of low voltage side. In order to distribute the currents equally in each HTS tapes, the three times transposition was performed between the double pancake windings. The windings of prototype transformer were wound using copper tape with the same size as BSCCO-2223 HTS tape. The core of the transformer was designed and manufactured as a shell type core made of laminated silicon steel plate. The several characteristics tests for the prototype transformer were performed in liquid nitrogen and insulation tests were accomplished also.

This paper presents the optimal design of planar flyback transformer suitable for small-size and low-profile of AC to DC adapter for 10W tablet. This paper also proposes the injection winding transformer of Hybrid and Drum types capable of the winding method of automatic type and the reduction of transformer size and leakage inductance(L_k) compared to the conventional mass-production flyback transformer with the winding method of manual type. In particular, the injection winding transformer of Drum type proposed in this paper is constructed in a horizontal laying of its transformer to solve the connection problem of copper plate injection winding on the secondary side of the one of Hybrid type. The primary and secondary windings of the injection winding transformer of Hybrid and Drum types used the conventional winding and the copper plate injection winding, respectively. For the injection winding transformer of Hybrid and Drum types proposed in this paper, the optimal design of planar flyback transformer suitable for small-size and low-profile was carried out using Maxwell 2D and 3D tool.
