  • Abstract
    A controlled regenerative current mode transformer provides nearly ideal characteristics as the control and driving means for power switching transistors. Guaranteed transistor gain, elimination of crossover current, and positive on/off control with a minimun of control power are some of the advantages when used as the interstage transformer. Design criteria are discussed utilizing DC to DC converter/regulator circuits to illustrate and analyze the transformer´s performance characteristics.
