Patent attributes
Disclosed is a choke transformer used in liquid crystal display (LCD) backlight driver, comprising a winding base on which a plurality of spacers are formed and having a hollow structure, a core received within the winding base and a plurality of windings wound between two neighboring ones of the plurality of spacers as a winding set, each winding set having windings of different characteristics; and is characterized in that an air gap is provided between the winding base having the hollow structure and the core. With such devised choke transformer, a higher endurable voltage is achieved. Further, the characteristics of prolonged lifetime, reduced cost, smaller dimension and saved installation space may be achieved with the choke transformer.
