Abstract
A transformer power combiner includes a plurality of current combiners and a voltage combiner. The current combiners are coupled in series, and include a plurality of primary winding conductors magnetically coupled to a plurality of secondary winding conductors respectively. Each of the current combiners is configured to combine currents flowing therethrough. The voltage combiner is coupled to a series connection of the current combiners, and is configured to combine voltages across the current combiners to thereby generate an output of the transformer power combiner.
