TRANSFORMER
First Claim
1. A printed circuit board transformer comprising at least one primary winding (3, 5) and one secondary winding (9), each in the form of at least one layer of turns inside or at the surface of a printed circuit board (9), said transformer having a turn ratio of said primary winding to said secondary winding differing from 1:
- 1 so as to achieve a step-up/down-operation,characterized in that each of said two layers has an elongated winding element (12, 13, 13′
, 13″
, 13′
″
) substantially following an elongated winding element of the other layer while being in an overlapping relationship therewith as seen perpendicularly to said printed circuit board (9) over substantially the entire extension of said winding elements, and that a second (11) of said layers belonging to said secondary winding has a fewer number of turns than the number of turns of a first (10) of said layers belonging to said primary winding.

Abstract
A printed circuit board transformer comprises at least one primary winding and one secondary winding, each in the form of at least one layer of turns inside or at the surface of a printed circuit board. The transformer is designed for a step-up/down-operation. Each of the two layers (10, 11) has an elongated winding element (12, 13, 13′) substantially following an elongated winding element of the other layer while being in an overlapping relationship therewith as seen perpendicularly to said printed circuit board over substantially the entire extension of said winding elements. A second (11) of the layers belonging to the secondary winding has a fewer number of turns than the first (10) of said layers belonging to said primary winding.
