Frequency response of resonant converters

Abstract

The general theory of the discrete small-signal analyses of resonant converters has been formulated in a closed form. For simplicity and verification, the state-plane diagram technique is used for the analysis. This theory is applicable to converters in half-bridge or full-bridge configurations when operated in the continuous conduction mode. Using a series resonant converter (SRC) as an example, the analytic approach based on the state-plane diagram is demonstrated.<>
