This paper introduces a forward converter aimed at the universal mains voltages, i.e., 220–230 Vac and 115 Vac, named the ‘dual voltage forward converter’. The suggested converter has a narrow dynamic range at the universal mains voltages, which results in lower stress on devices, optimal duty cycles, and better overall efficiency. The topology comprises two primary power loops reconfigurable by additional two-state switches and a passive diode, which allows the converter to run in parallel or in series modes and increase the performance over the full universal mains range of 90–265 Vac. The utilization of the devices is better, as they experience lower voltage and current stress by supporting two optimized working points. A converter operating at 100 kHz with an output power of 75 W and output voltage of 12 Vdc was designed and tested. The results were compared with a conventional forward converter with the identical specification. The results at the low mains were similar between the converters; however, at the high mains, the efficiency improvement was between 5% and 23%.
