Abstract :
A technique in switch mode power conversion, the TT CONVERTER, is presented. It finds applications in DC to DC conversion (both continuous and discontinuous conduction mode), battery management, offline power factor correction, quasi-resonant switching, isolation, load sharing, and multiple output converters. Theoretical aspects and experimental results are discussed
