Abstract
An energy converting circuit, boosting the voltage supplied by a low direct voltage source, comprising a self-oscillating circuit, operating at very low voltage, using a voltage boosting transformer generating control signals of two chopper-boosters operating alternately. The circuit including an enhancement-type field effect translator used in synchronous switching with the self-oscillating circuit, which is in serial connection with an inductive resistor to the terminals of the source ( ). The transistor being connected to a user circuit via a diode ( ). The circuit is used in a device for supplying electricity to appliances and by the production of thermal converters for the utilization of low-voltage thermoelectricity, as well as in a method for the manufacture of thermal converters on an industrial scale.
