Abstract

This paper presents a new third-order T-connected series-loaded resonant circuit which overcome the inherent disadvantages of the series resonant converter operating as a low harmonic rectifier. The inclusion of a parallel resonant inductor increases the conduction angle of the diode bridge, thus reducing the harmonic content of the line current and then extending the power handling capability
