A converter circuit having a first and a second converter element is
specified, with each converter element having a DC voltage circuit and in
each case one converter element phase (u1, v1, w1) of the first converter
element being connected to a respective converter element phase (u2, v2,
w2) of the second converter element. Furthermore, a transformer is
provided, with the secondary windings of the transformer being connected
to the connected converter element phases (u1, v1, w1, u2, v2, w2) of the
first and second converter elements. In order to ensure that virtually no
amplitude components relating to the switching frequency of the converter
circuit occur during its operation in the output currents of the
converter circuit and in the output voltages of the converter circuit,
one secondary winding is in each case connected in series in each
connection of one converter element phase (u1, v1, w1) of the first
converter element to one converter element phase (u2, v2, w2) of the
second converter element, in which case each secondary winding is formed
by two winding elements connected in series with one another, with the
junction point of the two winding elements forming a neutral-point
connection, and two filter capacitors which are connected in series with
one another are in each case connected in parallel with each secondary
winding.
