Abstract
A circuit arrangement for reducing a magnetic unidirectional flux component in a core of a transformer includes a measuring device that provides a sensor signal corresponding to the magnetic unidirectional flux component, a compensation coil magnetically coupled to the core of the transformer, and a semiconductor switching device which is electrically arranged in a current path in series with the compensation coil to feed a current into the compensation coil, such that current is directed opposite the unidirectional flux component, where the semiconductor switching device is controlled via a control signal provided by a controller, and includes an inductive voltage divider having a first impedance component arranged in a current circuit in series with the compensation coil and the semiconductor switching device and a second impedance component arranged in parallel with the semiconductor switching device, where the first impedance component is connected in parallel with a parallel resonant circuit.
