摘要
A switching converter has a self-driven bipolar junction transistor (BJT) synchronous rectifier. The BJT rectifier includes a BJT and a parallel-connected diode, and has a low forward voltage drop. In a first portion of a switching cycle, a main switch is on and the BJT rectifier is off. Current flows from an input, through the main switch, through the first inductor, to an output. Current also flows through the main switch, through the second inductor, to the output. In a second portion of the cycle, the main switch is turned off but the inductor currents continue to flow. Current flows from a ground node, through the BJT rectifier, through the first inductor, to the output. The BJT is on due to the second inductor drawing a base current from the BJT. In one example, the main switch is a split-source NFET that conducts separate currents through the two inductors.
