[Amps] OM power power supply design

[Felipe Ceglia]

Hi guys,

Still regarding my own project.. As the first quote was a bit too
salty, I started thinking about alternatives...

Last night I came across these schematics from OM Power.

They use 8 250v  windings, rectified, in series. Seems ingenious as
that would lower the costs for the transformer, and it makes the use
of toroidal cores an option.

What would be the drawbacks of copying such a design? Should each of
the windings deliver the required current or should there be a safe
margin?

here are the pics: http://www.sm5cki.se/ompower/schematics.html

73 tu,
