1. A power converter, comprising:

  • a transformer for receiving bipolar electrical input power from a power source, said power substantially free of dead time; and

    a hybridge rectifier coupled to said transformer and including first and second output inductors of independently selectable, differing inductance, said hybridge rectifier receiving said input power from said transformer and rectifying said input power to produce an output power substantially free of ripple current at a predetermined duty cycle operating point of said converter, said first and second output inductors being of independently selectable, differing inductance thereby to allow said predetermined duty cycle operating point to be adjustable.
