Abstract :
The major problems encountered in designing converters for capacitor charging are discussed. A design approach is outlined for designing an inductive storage (blocking oscillator) type converter and a design example given. Particular emphasis is placed on problems associated with using low-voltage nickel cadmium cells to power the converter.
