Abstract

The present disclosure provides methods and techniques associated with a planar transformer for an apparatus. The planar transformers include a substrate carrying electronic components, an upper core bonded on a first exterior surface of the substrate, and a lower core bonded on a second exterior surface opposed to the first side of the substrate. The electronic components include primary windings and secondary windings associated with the transformer. In some embodiments, the transformer includes encapsulant material that is dispensed over and between the components of the transformer to seal air gaps.
