Patent attributes
An exemplary DC to DC converter includes a first transistor, a second transistor, a transformer, and a pulse generating circuit having a first capacitor, a sampling resistor, a zener diode, and a first diode. A DC voltage input terminal is configured for receiving a first DC voltage and is grounded via the primary winding of the transformer, a collector electrode and an emitter electrode of the first transistor in series. A terminal of the auxiliary winding of the transformer is grounded via the inverted first diode, the non-inverted zener diode, the sampling resistor, and the first capacitor. The other terminal of the auxiliary winding is grounded. A first transistor having a base electrode connected to the DC voltage input terminal. A second transistor includes an emitter electrode a cathode of the zener diode, a collector electrode connected to a base electrode of the first transistor, and a grounded base electrode.
