A DC-to-DC converter having a transformer with a primary and a tapped
secondary, two serial output filter inductors connected parallel with the
secondary, a center output filter inductor connected between the
secondary tap and serial output inductors, two serially connected
switches connected in parallel with the two output inductors for
receiving a signal to control operation of the switches during steady
state and an output load connected between the serial connection of the
serial output inductors and serial switching devices. The transformer
primary side connected with double-ended primary-side topologies. The
transformer secondary and output filers configured to form a current
tripler rectifier, current quadtupler rectifier or current N-tuper
rectifier. The output filter inductors evenly share output current
resulting in reduction of current and thermal stress during high current
application and the rectification topology has simple driving for
synchronous rectifier application without increasing complexity of
control and operation of primary-side topologies.
