Voltage Converter - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18180935 titled 'Voltage Converter
Simplified Explanation
The embodiment voltage converter described in the patent application is a DC-DC converter with a controller that adjusts the voltage of the input terminal and outputs it to the output terminal. The converter includes a transformer, a main switch connected to the input terminal and the transformer, and first and second synchronous rectification switches connected to the output terminal and the transformer. The controller is responsible for switching the main switch to adjust the voltage and complementarily switching the rectification switches without any dead time.
- The DC-DC converter includes a transformer, a main switch, and synchronous rectification switches.
