Abstract :
The paper presents a resonant converter topology capable of providing zero ripple conditions at either its input or output current. The basic properties of the proposed topology are discussed in detail. The remarkable symmetry and the proportional voltages of the circuit allow it to maintain ripple-less current independent of the load or switching frequency. Theoretical predictions are well supported by simulation and experimental results.
