ATX power-supply designers tend to favor single-switch forward-converter topologies because they are simple and can power multiple, isolated outputs. However, the drawback of these approaches is that ...

A synchronous rectified forward converter optimized for performance and cost uses coupled inductors for output filtering and transformer-based gate drive. Digital signal processing ICs continue to ...

Implementing active clamp technique for single-ended flyback and forward converter designs enhances efficiency at high switching frequencies while lowering component stresses. In the conventional ...

Abstract: A new forward-based single-stage power-factor-corrected converter is proposed. A portion of input power is directly transferred to the output through the forward converter to improve the ...

Abstract: The evolution of the forward power converter is first reviewed, in a tutorial fashion, from the classic to the contemporary. Salient features are then discussed and results are compiled to ...
