Abstract: The embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems and methods of forming a transformer with enhanced leakage inductance for power conversion. The transformer may include a toroidal core, a primary winding around a first portion of the toroidal core, a secondary winding around a second portion of the toroidal core different from the first portion, and a magnetic material disposed within a cavity formed by the toroidal core. The magnetic material may comprise a ferrite. The method of forming a transformer may include the steps of providing a toroidal core, winding a primary coil around a first portion of the toroidal core, winding a secondary coil around a second portion of the toroidal core, and disposing a magnetic material within the cavity formed by the toroidal core to enhance the leakage inductance of the transformer.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to high voltage systems. In one embodiment, a balancing and measuring circuit is disclosed, comprising: a first capacitor electrically coupled between a first voltage and a chassis voltage, wherein the first voltage is greater than the chassis voltage; a second capacitor electrically coupled between a second voltage and the chassis voltage, wherein the second voltage is less than the chassis voltage; a first circuit associated with the first capacitor; and a second circuit associated with the second capacitor, wherein the first circuit and the second circuit each comprise: a resistive element; a switching element; a voltage circuit configured to generate a reference voltage; and a controller configured to monitor a voltage of a reference capacitor and to control the switching element based on the monitored voltage, wherein the resistive element and the switching element are connected in series.
