Abstract
This paper suggests a new reliable push pull converter. The proposed push-pull converter have additional two diodes comparing with conventional push-pull converter. When one of two MOSFETs of the push-pull converter is on state, the other MOSFET is automatically off state due to adding additional diodes. Therefore, the converter is under electric noise environments, the converter avoids short circuit due to turning on of two MOSFETs. In this paper, the suggested converter has been simulated by PLECS software for 100 kHz switching frequency. In simulation, the current of the converter switches increases about 10 % for $20{\mu}sec$ electric noise environments. However, the converter operates very reliably without any short circuit conditions.
