Abstract: A current resonant DC-DC converter of multi-output type is provided which comprises an output-regulatory MOS-FET 40 connected between a secondary winding 5c of a transformer 5 and a smoothing capacitor 16 in a second rectifying smoother 17, and an output control circuit 41 for controlling the on-off operation of output-regulatory MOS-FET 40 based on voltage VO2 from smoothing capacitor 16 in second rectifying smoother 17. By turning the on-off operation of output-regulatory MOS-FET 40 in synchronization with switching frequency of first or second MOS-FETs 1, 2, an ideal cross regulation among respective DC outputs can be obtained, providing the inexpensive converter with simple circuit alteration capable of producing highly stable DC outputs with high power conversion efficiency, high accuracy and less power conversion loss.
