Abstract
A voltage converter is provided. The voltage converter comprises a switching circuit that includes a first pair of switches and a second pair of switches. The voltage converter comprises a transformer having a magnetizing inductance and a leakage inductance that are a function of a windings ratio of the transformer. The voltage converter comprises a capacitor coupled to the transformer and the switching circuit. The voltage converter comprises a switch control circuit configured to generate a frequency for controlling the first pair of switches and the second pair of switches. The frequency is set of a value to control the pairs of switches so that a peak capacitor voltage of the capacitor is a factor of an output voltage of the voltage converter and the windings ratio of the transformer.
