  • Abstract
    The problems associated with IGT/COMFET devices in PWM converters, such as turn-off current tailing and turn-off latching are largely avoided in a zero current switching resonant converter. Dv/dt induced phenomena, such as the power losses and latching, are identified as the predominant problems in using IGT/COMFET devices for very high frequency resonant operation.
