20100019743DC-DC CONVERTER - The present invention provides a DC-DC converter including a first series circuit connected to both ends of a first switch and formed of a winding of a first transformer, a first reactor, a first diode, and a smoothing capacitor, a second diode connected to a connection point of a primary winding of the first transformer, the winding of the first transformer and the first switch, and to one end of the smoothing capacitor, a second series circuit connected to both ends of a second switch and formed of a winding of a second transformer, a second reactor, a third diode, and the smoothing capacitor, a fourth diode connected to a connection point of a primary winding of the second transformer, the winding of the second transformer and the second switch, and to the one end of the smoothing capacitor, a third reactor connected to both ends of a series circuit of a secondary winding of the first transformer and a secondary winding of the second transformer, and a control circuit which alternately turns on the first switch and the second switch every ½ cycle, turns off the first switch during an on-period of the second switch, and turns off the second switch during an on-period of the first switch.01-28-2010
20090262557BI-DIRECTIONAL DC-DC CONVERTER - A bi-directional DC-DC converter includes a first series circuit connected to ends of a first DC power source and including a first winding of a first reactor and a first switch; a second series circuit connected to ends of the first switch and including a second winding of the first reactor, a second reactor, a second switch, a third switch, and a second DC power source; a third series circuit connected to the ends of the first switch and including a fourth switch and the second DC power source; and a control circuit configured to turn on/off the switches and thereby carry out step-up and step-down operations between the first and second DC power sources.10-22-2009
20090262555CURRENT-MODE CONTROLLED DC-DC CONVERTER - A current-mode controlled DC-DC converter includes a comparator comparing a first or second current detection signal with a first or second reference current that is based on an error voltage of a voltage detection signal, a pulse generator generating a first pulse signal whose ON time is longer than an interval between when the second current detection signal reaches a minimum value and when the second current detection signal reaches the second reference current, a pulse generator generating a second pulse signal whose ON time is longer than an interval between when the first current detection signal reaches a minimum value and when the first current detection signal reaches the first reference current, the second pulse signal being behind the first pulse signal by a half period, and a PWM circuit generating a first or second PWM signal according to the pulse signal and an output signal from the comparator, thereby turning on/off a switch.10-22-2009
