Abstract :
A transformer-coupled dc-to-dc converter, in which the voltage-regulation feedback loop also serves to establish the self-oscillations required for dc-to-ac inversion, is described in this paper. This results in improved circuit economy as compared to conventional converters in which regulation and inversion are separate functions.
