Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 24:
25. A method for DC-to-DC conversion, comprising:
controlling a first current in a primary winding of a first transformer and a second current in a primary winding of a second transformer to flow in a first pattern, such that a secondary winding of the first transformer and a secondary winding of the second transformer are electrically coupled in serial to output a first voltage; and
controlling the first current and the second current to flow in a second pattern different from the first pattern, such that the secondary winding of the first transformer and the secondary winding of the second transformer are electrically coupled in parallel to output a second voltage lower than the first voltage,
wherein controlling the first current and the second current to flow in the first pattern comprises controlling the first current and the second current to flow in different directions, and
wherein controlling the first current and the second current to flow in the second pattern comprises controlling the first current and the second current to flow in a same direction.
