12V
Output Voltage Circuit
This is a one transistor self-excited DC/DC converter, which
is
called R.C.C. (Ringing Choke Converter).
Figure 4-47 shows the principle of the circuit.

(a) When the power is supplied to VI (BS), Tr turns on, and
IC
flows through the primary winding of the
transformer.
By this current, voltage (Vb) is induced to the base winding, then Tr immediately reaches saturation.
(b)
Tr can no longer maintain saturation. Therefore, Tr turns off immediately, then the voltage Vo is created by the
magnetic energy stored in the transformer, and the voltage is sent to the output Vo through the diode
D.
(c) When the energy stored in the transformer is discharged, the output current ID diminishes and reaches zero.
However, Tr turns on immediately by the base voltage Vb which is induced from the primary winding, and the
above procedures are repeated.

Drive Circuit
Figure 4-49 shows the self-excited DC/AC inverter circuit.
The circuit converts DC to AC by switching at TR512

The
voltage and the frequency at the secondary winding at
