Abstract
A transformer is configured to include a pair of cores that each have an inner leg, wherein a primary winding that is wound around a bobbin having a hollow into which the inner legs of the cores are inserted and that is hermetically sealed with resin material, and a secondary winding that has a hollow into which the inner legs of the cores are inserted and that is constituted of a conductor formed by die-cutting a metal plate into a ring are dispersedly arranged over the inner legs of the cores.
