Abstract

Techniques for converting power received from a power grid at a first voltage and outputting a signal at a second voltage are discussed herein. A power converter with a transformer that has a 22.5 degrees phase shift between current output by corresponding pairs of secondary windings can be utilized to convert power of a first level to power of a second level. The transformer can output power from 30 secondary windings. The power converter can output power with a total harmonic distortion of 5% and an efficiency of 96% or higher. Further, power can be output by a transmission coil and received by a receive coil in a device, such as a vehicle, to wirelessly charge the vehicle.
