Abstract
A power supply unit with galvanic isolation for converting an input-side alternating or direct voltage into an output-side direct voltage in a clocked manner, includes a first primary circuit that has a series circuit consisting of a primary coil of a transformer and a first switch element and a first control circuit, at least one secondary circuit that has a secondary coil of the transformer and a smoothing capacitor that is parallel to an output direct voltage of the secondary circuit, a second primary circuit that has a series circuit consisting of a part of the primary coil and a second switch element for pulse length modulation of the voltage at the part of the primary coil, and a voltage evaluator that switches either the first or the second switch element for the next switching cycle depending on the level of the input voltage in order to obviate PFC circuits or a voltage multiplication.
