Abstract :
Methods to increase the output power while keeping the power conversion efficiency high are discussed. Examples of the DC-RF MOSFET powers inverter operating at both 2.5 MHz and 3 MHz are presented. Despite the difficulties in designing the full-bridged MOSFET power inverter having the output power enhanced by parallel connection of the MOSFETs operating at shortwave frequencies, the experimental versions were operated with reliability and without any extraordinary temperature rise.<>
