Abstract :
This paper presents an approximate analysis of LLC resonant converter with capacitive filter operating above and below resonance. An equivalent ac resistance model of the rectifier valid for discontinuous as well as continuous conduction modes is proposed. The dc voltage conversion ratio is then obtained using the fundamental harmonic approximation analysis method. Based on the analysis, LLC converter design plots and guidelines are suggested. The theory is verified by simulation and experiment.
