Abstract
A blocking converter is provided having a switching transistor controlled via a triggered monoflop with a defined on-time RC circuit which insures that the same electric energy quantity is always stored in a transformer driven by the switching transistor. The electrical energy is reversed to charge the charge capacitor during a blocking phase of the switching transistor. As soon as the reverse charge process is completed, the monoflop is retriggered. The blocking converter is preferably used in battery-operated electronic flash equipment for photography.
