Abstract
A power converter includes first and second switching circuitsand, a primary winding Thaving both ends connected to the first switching circuit, a secondary winding Thaving both ends connected to the second switching circuitand magnetically coupled with the secondary winding T, and a reactor L having a first end connected to a center tap m of the primary winding T. The first switching circuitincludes a full bridge having half bridges U and V connected in parallel, and diodes Dand Deach having one end connected to a common point. The diodes Dand Deach have the other end connected to one of two parallel connecting points of the full bridge. Input alternating-current voltage Vin is applied between a second end of the reactor L and the connecting point of the diodes Dand D
