Abstract

The invention relates to a DC/DC voltage converter, comprising a transformer having a primary-side winding and a secondary-side winding having a center tap, an output inductor, which is connected to the center tap and a first output connection, a synchronous rectifier circuit having two synchronous rectifier switches, which are each connected to the end-side taps of the secondary-side winding and which are designed to produce a rectified output voltage at a second output connection, and a snubber circuit connected by means of the synchronous rectifier circuit. The snubber circuit has two diodes, which are each coupled to the end-side taps of the secondary-side winding, a capacitor, which is coupled to the two diodes and which is designed to store resonant oscillation energy in the synchronous rectifier circuit, and a component having a Zener characteristic, wherein the component having the Zener characteristic is coupled between the first output connection and the capacitor and has a breakdown voltage that is less than the difference between the maximum permissible voltage of the capacitor and the maximum value of the rectified output voltage.
