Abstract :
In this paper, a 10 kW current-fed DC-DC converter using resonant push-pull topology is demonstrated and analyzed. The grounds for component dimensioning are given and the advantages and disadvantages of the resonant push-pull topology are discussed. The converter characteristics and efficiencies are demonstrated by calculations and prototype measurements.
