Abstract :
This paper describes a technique for overcoming the harmful influence of high-voltage transformer capacitance on a series resonant power converter. This circuit prevents cross-conduction and allows zero-voltage switching for a power converter operating at a fixed frequency. Measured data for a 8 kV, 300 kHz unit are presented
