Abstract
A boosting AC-to-DC converter An AC-to-DC converter may include a main rectifier, a first auxiliary rectifier, a second auxiliary rectifiers and a transformer assembly. The transformer assembly may include a set of primary windings arranged in a first multiphase configuration and connected to the main rectifier, a first set of secondary windings arranged in a second multiphase relationship and connected to the first auxiliary rectifier and a second set of secondary windings arranged in a third multiphase configuration and connected to the second auxiliary rectifier. The second multiphase configuration of the first set of secondary windings and the third multiphase configuration of the second set of secondary windings may be in phase shifting relationships relative to the first multiphase configuration of the set of primary windings.
