The charging circuit has a transformer with its primary winding being part of the output filter, and its secondary winding driving a second rectifier circuit which produces the charging current. The charging circuit contains an impedance preferably connected between the transformer secondary winding and the second rectifier circuit, for capturing only a high frequency portion of the signal from the inverter stage, thereby enabling the utilization of smaller charger circuit elements.Other References
