The push pull forward converter is suitable in a low output voltage, a high output current applications with wide input voltage ranges. All magnetic components including output inductor, transformer and input filter can be integrated into single EI/EE core. The integrated push pull forward converter is considered through the comparison of efficiency according to the circuit parameters. The Nicera company's 5M FEE18/8/10C and NC-2H FEI32/8/20 cores are used for the transformer. The integrated push pull forward converter ratings are of $36\~72V$ input and 3.3V/30A output. In case that NC-2H FEI32/8/20 core used in the converter, the efficiency is measured up to $83.5\%$ at the switching frequency 200 kHz and the 11A load. The efficiencies of $76.4\%$ at a full load and $82.95\%$ at a half load are measured.

The push pull forward converter is a very suitable circuit for low output voltage, high output current applications with a wide input voltage range. This converter can be miniaturized by integrate magnetic components such as the output inductor, the transformer and the input inductor. We considered of the efficiency for the push pull forward converter. Developed the push pull forward converter rating are of $36{\sim}72V$ input and 3.3V/30A output. In this converter. the efficiency was measured by 76.4% at full load and 82.95% at half load. The maximum efficiency is up to 83.% at 200kHz, 11A output.

The push pull forward converter is a very suitable circuit for low output voltage, high output current applications with a wide input voltage range. All the magnetic components (output inductor, transformer, input filter) can be integrated into a single core. The integrated magnetics can reduce the number of the magnetic components. Developed the push pull forward converter rating are of 36 $\~$72V input and 3.3V/30A output. In this converter, the efficiency was measured by $76.4\%$ at full load and 82.95$\%$ at full load. The maximum efficiency is up to 83.$\%$ at 200kHz switching frequency, l1A output.
