| Abstract | Resonant switches have been introduced in order to reduce switching losses. But the peak current through the switch is higher than with a classical switch. The forward resonant converter presented here illustrates an operating principle that would be applicable to several other converter topologies. This converter is not more complex than the former ones, but it includes 3 advantageous features: - The devices ratings are reduced, for a specified output power. - The conduction power losses are reduced, for a given load and identical devices. - This circuit may be operated at a fixed frequency, so improving the filter design. |
