Abstract: A modified push-pull booster circuit is proposed, wherein two alternately switching transistors are disposed on the primary winding of a transformer, and a bridge rectifier and a charging circuit are disposed on the secondary winding; wherein the bridge rectifier has a pair of inductors with inductive coupling installed on the first half and second half of the circuit. The push-pull circuit uses series inductance to step up the bus voltage, and, because of the degaussing effect when current is induced on the inductors, the inductance of the inductor can be decreased even without using snubber circuit, thus decreasing the peak voltage of the bridge rectifier, and balancing the magnitude of current flow in the secondary winding. By reducing the turn ratio on the transformer windings, the operating efficiency of the booster circuit can be considerably improved.
