Abstract
A push-pull converter including a primary-side input converter circuit with a plurality of primary-side switching devices in a full-bridge circuit including a transformer being designed to receive the first AC voltage on a primary-side winding and to generate a second AC voltage on a secondary-side winding. The push-pull converter includes a secondary-side output converter circuit to convert the second AC voltage into an output DC voltage, including a first semi-bridge circuit, said semi-bridge circuit including a first secondary-side switching device, a second secondary-side switching device, and a first center tap connected to a first connection of the secondary-side winding. The secondary-side output converter circuit includes a second semi-bridge circuit which includes a first secondary-side diode, a second secondary-side diode, and a second center tap connected to a second connection of the secondary-side winding, said second semi-bridge circuit not including a switchable component.
