High Efficiency CLL Resonant Converter with Synchronous Rectifier
Year: 2009
Fig. 1. Circuit of LLC resonant converter.
The air gap of the CLL resonant converter transformer is omitted to eliminate fringing effect. Because of very high magnetizing inductance, the transformer primary side current is in phase with the secondary side current. Thus, SR can be easily driven. Moreover, resonant inductance is integrated with the transformer to reduce the passive component volume.
