Abstract
An inverter-type switching power supply circuit which comprises an inverter for converting the DC output of a DC power source to an AC output, a transformer for receiving the AC output of the inverter, a rectifier for rectifying the output of the transformer, a smoothing capacitor for smoothing the output of the rectifier and supplying it to a load, and a transformer short-circuiting circuit for short-circuiting either the primary side or the secondary side of the transformer. The transformer is frequency controlled such that the product of the applied voltage and time of the transformer becomes constant. Thus, the transformer can be designed to have a small size and a light weight.
