Abstract

The objective of the present invention is to reduce a transient current effectively in a rectifier circuit. In a rectifier circuit (1), a first rectifying element (FR1) is provided between a first terminal (FT1) and a second terminal (ST1). In the rectifier circuit (1), a primary winding current flows from a power source (TP1) through a primary winding (PW1) of a transformer (TR1) when a switch element (TT1) is turned on. When the switch element (TT1) is turned off, a second rectifying element current flows from a secondary winding (SW1) of the transformer (TR1) through a second rectifying element (SR1). By causing the second rectifying element current to flow, a first reverse voltage, which is an instantaneous reverse voltage, is applied between the first terminal (FT1) and the second terminal (ST1).

Description

technical field [0001] The following disclosure relates to rectification circuits. Background technique [0002] A rectification element such as MOSFET (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor) or FRD (First Recovery Diode, fast recovery diode) is used in the rectification circuit provided in the power supply circuit. Such a rectifying element includes a diode having a PN junction. [0003] Therefore, when a voltage is applied to the rectifying element in the reverse direction, charges accumulated in the PN junction flow through the rectifying element as a transient current. This transient current is also called reverse recovery current. Transient currents create losses in the power supply circuit. [0004] Patent Documents 1 and 2 respectively disclose a circuit for the purpose of reducing the transient current. For example, in the circuit disclosed in Patent Document 1, in order to reduce the transient current, a diode and a transformer connected in parallel ...
