(57) A converter circuit, for example, for powering lighting devices, comprising:
- a supply node (+V) and an output node (+Out) of the converter circuit,
- a half-bridge arrangement coupled to the supply node (+V) and including a pair of
electronic switches (MOS1, MOS2) alternatively switchable between conductive and non-conductive
states with a drive node (A) therebetween,
- a transformer (T) with a primary winding (Wp1) driven by the drive node (A) and
a secondary winding including two portions (Ws1, Ws2) with a center tap node (B) coupled
to the output node (+Out) of the converter circuit,
- an inductive component (10) including two magnetically coupled winding halves (Li1,
Li2) with a respective center tap node (C), the inductive component (10) being coupled
to the ends of the secondary winding of the transformer with the respective center
tap node (C) coupled to the output node (+Out) of the converter circuit.
