Modified Interleave Winding of Transformer to Improve SMPS's Performance

This paper presents a new method of modifying interleave winding so the transformer leakage inductance and winding resistance, which are the main parameters in switch mode power supplies (SMPSs) design. The results are applied to the design of a single switch forward SMPS with an output of 1500 watts and good result as 92.5% efficiency and high reliability achieved.
