Abstract

A coupled-inductor current-doubler topology for a power converter has first and second rectifiers and first and second coupled inductors. Each coupled inductor has a main inductor inductively coupled with a secondary inductor. The secondary inductor of the first coupled inductor is coupled in series with one of the first and second rectifiers and the secondary inductor of the second coupled inductor coupled in series with the other one of the first and second rectifiers.
