    摘要: Methods and systems for controlling an output voltage of a resonant converter during a light load condition. One such method includes generating a normalised conduction time of the resonant converter that varies inversely with a switching frequency of the resonant converter by continuing to operate the resonant converter in a Pulse Frequency Modulation mode at a low switching frequency that is similar to the resonant frequency. The method also includes controlling a power level delivered to a secondary winding of a transformer positioned between a resonant tank and an output rectifier of the resonant converter by regulating the normalised conduction time, where the delivered power level is variable based on load conditions. The method further includes generating an output voltage using the output rectifier wherein the magnitude of the output voltage corresponds to the power level delivered to the secondary winding.

    摘要: A resonant, bi-directional, DC to DC voltage converter with loss-less (soft) switching having regulated output and capable of converting power between two, high-potential and low-potential DC voltage sources. The converter's semiconductor and magnetic components provide both, output regulation and soft switching in both (step-down and step-up) directions of power conversion which reduces total component count, cost and volume and enhances power conversion efficiency.
