Re: what's the application?

Hi Gerd:

re: bifilar wound transformers. Yep... you get very high capacitance btwn the two windings and very low leakage L.

Above a certain frequency your no longer transformer coupling at all but essentially capacitor coupling.

In other words--- ironically, for the fellas who have suffered from capacitoritis--- bifilar tranneys promote excellent (i.e., large) capacitive coupling btwn the primary and secondary windings.

And of course this primary to secondary "capacitance" is in the signal path---- cause essentially above a certain critical frequency it (i.e., the capacitance) is THE signal path.
