Construction
The primary is wound first around a ferrite rod, and then the secondary is wound around the primary. This arrangement minimizes the leakage inductance of the primary. Finally, a ferrite frame is wrapped around the primary/secondary assembly, closing the magnetic field lines. Between the rod and the frame is an air gap, which increases the reluctance. The secondary is wound layer by layer with enameled wire, and Mylar film between the layers. In this way parts of the wire with higher voltage between them have more dielectric material between them. The outside of the winding sustains the highest voltage so insulation and screening will be needed to protect the surrounding components.

Famous quotes containing the word construction:
“Theres no art
To find the minds construction in the face.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“No real vital character in fiction is altogether a conscious construction of the author. On the contrary, it may be a sort of parasitic growth upon the authors personality, developing by internal necessity as much as by external addition.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“Theres no art
To find the minds construction in the face:
He was a gentleman on whom I built
An absolute trust.”
