Abstract

An example voltage converter includes a transformer having a primary winding, a first secondary winding, and a second secondary winding; a first transistor connected between a first terminal of the first secondary winding and electrical ground, where the first transistor has a first drain; a second transistor connected between a second terminal of the second secondary winding and electrical ground, where the second transistor has a second drain; and a capacitor connectable along a current path to the transformer via at least one of the first transistor or the second transistor. A control system detects a first voltage at the first drain and a second voltage at the second drain, and generates pulse-width modulated control signals based at least on the first and second voltages to control operation of the first and second transistors to produce voltage at the primary winding based on a voltage across the capacitor.
