[Lowfer] Triflier Core Winding

[Peter Barick]

Loafers,

I'm trying in vain to find information on the practice of "trifiler"
winding, as used on a ferrite core.

Why is it used? It seems to be a similar in style to Litz wire, the
forming of a twisted 3-wire conductor and wrapping it on the core, where
all like ends are tied together. This technique is new for me. I've seen
it where the three comprised both input and output windings, however.

I don't think it's to increase current cap., as the ref. I have is for
receiving apps. Then could it be for flexibility for winging on a small
core? Don't think that's it. Stumped.

Does anyone know of a forum better able to answer this question?
