Power supply circuit with multiple stages for converting high voltage to low voltage and power train having the same
A power supply circuit for converting a first voltage to a second voltage where the first voltage is greater than the second voltage, and a power train having the same, are provided. The power supply circuit may have multiple stages and each stage of the power supply circuit may include a first circuit block configured to provide a start-up power to a second circuit block; a second circuit block configured to generate a Pulse-Width-Modulation (PWM) signal that controls a pulse duration of a transistor; a third circuit block configured to activate or deactivate the transistor based on the PWM signal; a fourth circuit block configured to reset a magnetic flux in a transformer to a zero state when the transistor is deactivated; and a fifth circuit block configured to maintain an output of a stage below a predetermined value by adjusting a voltage across the transformer.
