Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method and apparatus for controlling resonant converter power production. In one embodiment, the method comprises determining accumulated charge processed by a resonant converter; dynamically determining a level of the accumulated charge that generates a predetermined output power; and controlling a switching cycle of the resonant converter based on the level of the accumulated charge.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method for controlling a resonant converter power production, comprising: monitoring an integrated current, during a conduction period of a switching bridge, to determine an amount of accumulated charge through a resonant circuit of a resonant converter; dynamically determining, during the conduction period and based on the integrated current, when the amount of the accumulated charge is sufficient to generate a predetermined output power from the…
