Soft Switcing techniques have recently been applied in the design of dc-ac converters, in order to achive better performance, higher efficiency, and power density. One of the soft switching techniques uesd in inverters is resonant dc links. These topologies have some disadvantages such as irregular current peaks, large voltage peaks, uncotrollble pulse width, etc. Another soft switching method ...

− In this paper, small signal characteristic of a LLC resonant converter is analyzed. LLC resonant converter was been reported in many papers recently because of its simple structure, high efficiency and high switching frequency capability. In order to make practical use of this topology, understanding its small signal characteristic is essential to design the control loop. For PWM converter, s...

This paper is based on the design and analysis of Total Harmonic Distortion(THD) and power factor for Compact Fluorescent Lamp. In the proposed electronic ballast Buck Boost converter operates in the continuous conduction mode, which provides a constant DC voltage to drive the lamp.By choosing the switching frequency more than the resonant frequency the zero voltage switching is achieved in res...

This paper explores a configuration for boost half bridge DC-DC converters, connected in parallel at the input and series at the output, such that the converters share the input current and load voltage equally. A stable control scheme has been developed to achieve this objective. In order to verify the effectiveness and stability of control scheme, input-parallel output-series (IPOS) connected...

Dynamic modeling and control of dc-dc series resonant converter (SRC) especially when operating in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) is still a challenge in power electronics. Due to semiconductors switching, SRC is naturally represented as a switched linear system, a class of hybrid systems. Nevertheless, the hybrid nature of the SRC is commonly neglected and it is modeled as a purely contin...
