The document describes a 50W forward converter circuit that uses a transformer to increase or decrease the output voltage from an input DC supply. It provides galvanic isolation between the input and output. The circuit was designed and built, including a switch board, components, schematic, and PCB. The forward converter provides a filtered and isolated output voltage and is more efficient than other converters for power outputs between 100-200W, making it suitable for applications like solar power systems and personal computers.

converter that uses a transformer to increase or decrease the output voltage (depending on the transformer ratio) and provide galvanic isolation for the load. With multiple output windings, it is possible to provide both higher and lower voltage outputs simultaneously. ■ We made a Switch Board Power Supply with Forward Converter. Components Circuit Diagram Operation ■ Mode-1 when switch S is turned ON. This connects the input voltage, Edc, to the primary winding. ■ Both primary and secondary windings start conducting simultaneously. ■ The primary and secondary current related to transformer turn ratio. Altium Schematic Failure PCB PCB file Applications ■ It is used in Solar Power System ■ Personal Computer ■ It is used for producing isolated and controlled dc voltage from the unregulated dc input supply. ■ It is generally more energy efficient and is used for applications requiring little higher power output (in the range of 100 watts to 200 watts). Comparison with other converter ■ Better transformer utilization ■ Filtered output. ■ Better isolation between input and output ■ It is generally more energy efficient as compared to flyback. ■ It is used for applications requiring little higher power output (in the range of 100 watts to 200 watts). ■ The output filtering circuit is not as simple as in the fly-back converter. ■ The switching frequency may thus be in the range of 100 kHz or more.
