ABSTRACT:
Bilateral converters are disclosed which translate direct current voltages at one level to direct current voltages at another level. The same converter can also be used to translate direct current voltages at the second level back to direct current voltages at the first level. The converter is bilateral in the sense of converting direct current energy in both directions from a higher to a lower voltage level and from the lower to the higher level.
A switching signal interrupts the direct current at the first voltage level and a transformer is used to step up or step down the voltage level. The output voltage is rectified to provide direct current power at the second voltage level. The same action takes place in the opposite direction in response to nothing more than a change in the loading placed on the system.
