Transformer structure

A transformer comprising a primary winding and a secondary winding. The primary winding has N2 number turns and having a first terminal and a second terminal. The secondary winding has having N1 fractional portions, which together form a full turn, are in close proximity to the primary winding to establish coupling between the primary winding and the N1 fractional coil portions, the transformer turn ratio from the primary winding to the secondary winding is N2:(N3/N1) where N2 is an integer equal to or greater than 1, N1 is an integer greater than or equal to 2, and N3 is an integer greater than or equal to 1. Also disclosed is a stacked integrated transformer having a primary winding and secondary winding of which one or both have a waterfall structure and a portion of which functions as a ground connected shield between the secondary winding and the primary winding.
