Abstract:
An example voltage converter includes a transformer having a primary winding, a first secondary winding, and a second secondary winding; a first transistor connected between a first terminal of the first secondary winding and electrical ground; a second transistor connected between a second terminal of the second secondary winding and electrical ground; an inductor connected to a center tap of the transformer between the first secondary winding and the second secondary winding; and a capacitor that is connectable along a current path to the transformer that includes the inductor via at least one of the first transistor or the second transistor. A control system generates, based on characteristics of current through the inductor, pulse-width modulated control signals to control operation of the first transistor and the second transistor to produce voltage at the primary winding based on a voltage across the capacitor.
