Abstract :
Design of the two-stage two-phase double-forward converter for pulsed-load radar applications is presented. This topology provides an optimum combination of fast output-current buildup time and low RMS current in the switching transistors. An equivalent small-signal circuit of this multiphase converter based on the single-stage model is developed. Results of the converter simulation under dynamic load conditions are shown along with experimental results
