Abstract: The embodiments of the present invention provide a non-contact data connection that is adaptable to transmit data across an air gap. The data connection includes a first substrate (706) and a loosely coupled wide band pulse transformer for transmitting data over an air gap (820) separating a primary-winding (704) from a secondary winding (714) of the transformer. The primary winding of the transformer includes at least two planar windings formed in parallel planes upon and/or within the first substrate for facilitating a neutralization of transmission line resonances due to distributed capacitance and inductance of the planar windings.
