Abstract

Resonant DC to DC power converter topologies include a PWM-controlled flyback converter having a single transformer and a primary side resonant subcircuit that is optimally controlled to minimize reverse recovery losses. A second transformer may be added wherein the primary windings are connected in series, the first transformer having substantially greater inductance than the second transformer to more efficiently transfer energy over a wide range of output load conditions. A combined forward-flyback resonant converter utilizing a load-side buck loop for increased power delivery performance and start-up circuitry for initial power connection of the converter to a voltage source utilizing a hysteresis protection circuit are also disclosed.
