Operating Impedance

Tre', you are correct regarding the shunt inductance of the transformer. The required inductance is a function of the *operating impedance* of the circuit, and that in turn is determined by the impedance reflected back onto the primary from the load. This operating impedance can be represented by △E/△I, and that term is controlled by load Z and turns ratio. It is relatively unaffected by the source Z, which generally has more effect on output power and efficiency than anything else.
