Patent attributes
A power converter includes a primary circuit and a secondary circuit. The primary circuit includes two primary LC circuits that are in parallel electrically with each other. A first node of each primary LC circuit is electrically coupled to a high-voltage input. A second node of each primary LC circuit is coupled to a respective terminal of a primary inductor that forms a transformer with a secondary inductor in the secondary circuit. Each primary LC circuit is electrically coupled to a primary switch that operates at approximately the resonance frequency of the primary LC circuits to output an alternating current that passes through the primary inductor. The terminals of the secondary inductor are coupled to respective secondary switches. The switches operate at the resonance frequency of the primary LC circuit to rectify the power. A low-pass filter outputs the mean of the received voltage.
