LM5161: LM5161 Webench Question on the Transformer

Part Number: LM5161

My customer did a Webench design with the LM5161 for an isolated converter and the 749196111 transformer from Wurth was the suggested part.

The question the customer has is how they should connect to the transformer as there are 3 winding on the primary and 3 on the secondary. Should they just connect all of the windings in series on the primary and the secondary? I am not sure what to answer here. Should they just connect to one set of winding on the primary and secondary or should they connect them in series?

I can send you their Webench design by internal email if you need to look at it, but there is not indication of the actual connections to the transformer shown in the schematic.

 Thanks for your help with this!
