Quasi-resonant converter-fed DC drive system

Resonant switches operating under the principle of zero current or zero voltage can be operated with low switching loss. The low loss allows the resonant con-verters to operate at very high frequencies. These types of converters have shown great promise in very high density power supplies. Recent at...

Description
Summary:Resonant switches operating under the principle of zero current or zero voltage can be operated with low switching loss. The low loss allows the resonant con-verters to operate at very high frequencies. These types of converters have shown great promise in very high density power supplies. Recent attempts have also been made to extend the resonant technology to motor drive applications such as the DC-DC switching amplifiers for DC motors and DC-AC converters for AC motors.
