  • Abstract
    Although LLC resonant converter can achieve wide operation range with high efficiency, lack of design methodology makes it difficult to be implemented. In this paper, based on the theoretical analysis on the operation principles during normal condition and holdup time, the relationship between converter efficiency and operation range with different circuit parameters has be revealed. An optimal design methodology has been developed based on the revealed relationship. A 1MHz, 1kW LLC converter is designed to verify the proposed method.
