Abstract

A new resonant converter is presented to have the advantages of soft switching operation on power devices, without reverse recovery current loss on power diodes and wide input voltage range operation. Resonant converter with frequency modulation is adopted in the proposed circuit to accomplish the low switching loss on power switches and possible zero current switching operation on fast recovery diodes. To improve the problem of limit voltage range operation in the conventional resonant converter, a new parallel-series structure resonant converter is studied to achieve wide input voltage operation capability, such as from V in,min to 4 V in,min . A 1.8 kW laboratory circuit is implemented, and the measured results are provided to confirm the theoretical analysis and circuit performance.
