I've found this in the data sheets - my core is N97 operating at 25kHz tho the data sheet says:
"Large E/ETD, RM/PM cores made of N27, N97, N87 (with large core cross sections (Ae ≥250 mm2), on account of eddy-current losses N87 must be used even where f <100 kHz)"
Is this likely to be my problem? I cannot find an N87 core in my transformer size. Is it worth me getting a different size bobbin and starting from scratch?
Gapping and decoupling didnt seem to help much, is the topology with half bridge suppling one side of transformer and a capacitive divider on the other (as attached) likely to be easier for me to accomplish successfully?
