Digital Gain-Scheduled Control of a High-Frequency Parallel Resonant DC-DC Converter

Year: 2012

This paper discusses the nonresonant-coupled parallel resonant converter and presents the design and simulation of a reference classical analog controller. Based on the strong relationship observed between low-frequency converter gain and the operating point, a band-limited gain-scheduled digital controller is proposed, designed, and simulated, showing an improvement of 5:1 with worst-case control bandwidth over the analog controller. A prototype is designed and built, and it experimentally validates the simulation results with good correlation.
