Abstract: A multiphase transformer is provided for converting an input signal having N phases into an output signal having M phases. The transformer includes a plurality of first windings connected together to provide a load for an N phase signal, with each of the first windings having a plurality of take-off points, including tap-off points interior to the ends of the first windings. A mechanism is provided for coupling the input signal to the first windings. A plurality of M output terminals is further provided as is a mechanism for coupling the M output terminals to at least some of the take-off points of the first windings. This mechanism includes a plurality of second windings, with the second windings each electrically coupled between one of the output terminals and one of the tap-off points of the first windings and with each of the second windings magnetically coupled to another of the first windings.
