Abstract :
Average electric transformers are very hevy because they have iron core, and we usually feel hard to bring the electric transformer. Therefore, lightweight electric transformers are desired. We propose to use an electric transformer which is built by using two spiral inductors. Our transformer is very light, does not have iron loss, and can boost or step down voltage by rotating one of two spiral inductors.
