The output diode has an anode coupled to the non-doped end of the second winding and a cathode. The second diode has an anode coupled to the non-tapping end of the first winding and a cathode coupled to the non-tapping end of the second winding. The switching element is coupled to the anode of the output diode and the cathode of the second diode.

When the switching element is turned on, the first diode is biased and the second diode is biased, the output diode is reverse biased, the exciting inductance of the third winding is excited, and the pump capacitor is charged. The output capacitor releases energy to generate the output voltage; when the switching element is not conducting, the first diode is reverse biased and the second diode is reverse biased, and the output diode is biased, the third winding The magnetizing inductance is demagnetized and the pump capacitor is discharged.

Preferably, the switching element is a grounded non-floating switching element.
