Circuit model, design feasibility, and design tradeoffs are investigated for the transformer in 1.5-5 V power supplies with high efficiency and high power density. The transformer is constructed from a single or a matrix of pot cores and from interleaved planar windings. It has been determined theoretically and verified experimentally that such a transformer is realizable as long as the loss constraint is not severe (e.g. less than 0.5 W transformer loss per 100 W output). The primary source of loss is the winding, not the core, in 1.5 V/turn design. Measures to reduce the transformer height tend to increase transformer loss or volume
