Abstract
The aim of this work is to implement the proposed DC-DC isolated converter on a half brick-sized printed circuit broad (PCB), which is achieved in the hardware by using a planar inductor and planar transformer. Current-fed push–pull converter consists of a pre-regulated buck converter stage where the wide range of input is regulated. The inductor of the buck stage acts as current source to the push–pull converter stage. The buck converter output which is pre-regulated is fed as input to the push–pull converter. Here the buck stage switches operate at 300 kHz, and push–pull stage switches operate at half frequency of the buck stage, to reduce filter size of converter. The output obtained is low voltage and high current. Also, in the circuit, synchronous rectification is used to achieve high efficiency. The proposed converter is hardware implemented to validate the design results.
