Abstract
A prototype capacitor-charging power supply (CCPS) that utilizes a Ward converter is presented. This converter is a member of the family of resonant converters and is capable of zero-current switching. It is applicable to capacitor charging because of its inherent short-circuit protection and its insensitivity to the value of the load capacitance. The converter is controlled using a constant on-time constant frequency scheme that allows the utilization of zero-current switching techniques. The prototype CCPS is capable of charging various values of load capacitors up to 1000 V DC. Waveforms that show single- and repetitive-charge operation of the CCPS are presented. >
