A circuit model for the class E resonant DC-DC converter regulated at a fixed switching frequency

An averaging circuit model is developed for the class E resonant DC-DC converter regulated at a fixed switching frequency. The regulation is achieved by use of an auxiliary switch. The model is obtained based on the circuit analysis using the Fourier series expansion. Steady-state and small-signal dynamic analysis is presented, which reveals that the DC output is well controlled by the control angle of the auxiliary switch and that there exists a right-half-plane zero in the control-to-output transfer function. The analysis results are verified by the experiments
