  • Abstract
    A 3 kW AC/DC converter is studied to comply the following conditions: power factor correction, output voltage regulation, electrical insulation, high efficiency. In this study we are interested in current-source resonant converter topologies with two energy storage elements and electrical insulation which allow the leakage inductance of a transformer to be included in order to achieve smaller size and lighter weight
