I have recently bought a book to learn about SMPS design and have learned some of the basics and fundamentals about SMPS design. However, when reading this book, and looking at some of the design procedure and schematics, they always refer to designing custom transformers for the PWM output. As in one big primary winding and multiple smaller secondary winding for multiple voltage outputs. It seems as if I wanted to build these circuits, all of the parts are readily available from digikey except these custom transformers that have one primary winding and multiple secondary winding and are designed to operate at the PWM frequencies of 40-60khz.
My question is if there any kind of readily available type of transformer I can use for SMPS instead of the custom wound transformers referred to in my book? Also, instead of one big primary winding and mulitple secondary windings for multiple voltage outputs, is it possible to use multiple transformers in parallel with the PWM output feeding all the transformers?
Thanks.
