Abstract
A cost effective circuit improves the cross regulation of multiple outputs converter, especially for that output chokes are coupled and a synchronous rectifier is applied to one of the outputs. A DC/DC converter includes a transformer having a primary winding and two secondary windings. The first secondary winding is coupled to a synchronous rectifier and a first output choke. The second secondary winding is coupled to a diode rectifier and a second output choke. The first output choke and the second output choke are coupled. A low power MOSFET switch is added to the diode rectifier for avoiding the diode rectifier operating in DCM when light loaded.
