Abstract
In this paper, a simple control method of the half-bridge (HB) LLC converter with one additional switch and capacitor in the primary side is proposed for wide-input-voltage applications with the hold-up time conditions. At nominal input, since the proposed method enables the HB LLC converter to operate with large transformer magnetizing inductance, it can reduce the conduction and switch turn-off losses in the primary side, which makes it highly efficient. On the other hand, during the hold-up time, since the proposed method increases the resonant capacitance by turning on one additional switch, the HB LLC converter can obtain high-voltage gain. To confirm the validity of the HB LLC converter with the proposed method, a 325–385 V input and 56 V/350 W output laboratory prototype is built and tested.
