Abstract
A winding arrangement system of a planar transformer includes a primary winding arranges on a number of first circuit layers of a printed circuit board (PCB), and two secondary winding arranged on a number of second circuit layers. The turns of the primary winding are coupled in series. Each second circuit layer has a winding turn. A first half of the winding turn belongs to one of the two secondary winding. A second half of the winding turn belongs to the other of the two secondary winding. The first and second halves of winding turns on each of the second secondary circuit layers share a common grounded node. All of the first halves of winding turns are coupled in parallel. All of the second halves of winding turns are also coupled in parallel.
