Abstract :
The clamped mode LCC-PS resonant inverter working with resonant current control is analysed. With this control method, the inverter is forced to operate with optimum commutations and without handling reactive energy, minimising both switching and conduction losses. A design abacus is generated and a graphic design method based on that abacus is presented and illustrated with a design example
