  • Abstract
    An equivalent circuit model for predicting the steady-state behaviour of the series resonant inverter with a current limiting diode-clamp is derived using describing function techniques. An iterative procedure is employed to determine the conduction point of the diode-clamp. Experimental results taken from a prototype inverter are presented to validate the model.
