Abstract
Three terminal PWM DC to DC converter networks which accomplish both non-pulsating input and non-pulsating output currents using a single simple coupled inductor is revealed. The DC to DC converter networks accomplish buck, boost, buck boost (flyback), buck complement, boost complement, or flyback complement (SEPIC) conversion using a simple circuit requiring only two switches, one of which may be a simple diode rectifier, one or two capacitors, and three or four inductors, which may be co-located on a single common magnetic core. Also revealed are techniques to accomplish isolation, high order (quadrature) transfer functions, methodology for reducing current ripple to near zero levels at all terminals simultaneously, and methodology for generalizing the process of changing three terminal networks with pulsating terminal currents into three terminal networks with non-pulsating terminal currents.
