what is saturation in transformer

Answer Posted / chellappan

there is a limit for allowing magnetic flux in a magnetic
circuit, in this case core of the transformer, depending
upon the nature of material and cross section.any further
attempt to increse the flux by incresing current/voltage,
will limit allowing flux thro'the magetic circuit.
saturation is thus reached. the saturation condition can be
used to design transformers for getting constant voltage
output

I'm generating a pulse of 3V with frequency 80Hz (12.5ms time period) and pulse duration 0.125ms and feeding it to a transformer since i want the pulse to get amplified around 60V. At the output amplification s happening but the pulse is changed to a spike, can you tell me what could be the reason? (an ordinary transformer 220V-12V stepdown transformer is reverse connected ie. now it is 12V-220V stepup and voltage amplification happens)
