In this paper, a high-frequency dual mode control LLC resonant converter with wide input voltage range is proposed through zero voltage switching (ZVS) under the universal line input voltage and every load conditions. Conventional small power adapter driving should be satisfied with universal line input voltage because it has no power factor correction circuit regulation. The conventional LLC resonant converter for an adapter can reduce the size of transformer in terms of high-frequency driving and ZVS. However, this converter has a disadvantage in terms of design of resonant tank under various input voltages because the frequency modulation range is very wide to satisfy voltage conversion gain. Compared with the conventional one, the proposed LLC converter can be adapted to universal line input voltage and high-frequency driving because it is controlled by pulse width modulation and pulse frequency modulation with control voltage. The validity of the proposed LLC converter is proved through the 60 W prototype.

LED는 다른 광원에 비해 동작수명이 길고, 친환경적이며, 에너지 효율이 높은 장점을 가지고 있다. 최근 LED 기술의 발전으로 인해 고휘도, 고용량의 LED가 개발됨에 따라, 표시장치에만 적용되던 LED를 조명장치에도 적용하는 기술이 확산되고 있다. 파워 LED는 동작의 안정성 및 신뢰성을 확보하기 위해 구동전류를 일정한 값 이하로 유지하는 전류제한기능이 필요한데, 본 논문에서는 전류제한기능을 포함한 하프브리지 LLC 직렬공진형 컨버터를 제안한다. 하프브리지 LLC 직렬공진형 컨버터는 다른 공진형 컨버터에 비해 상대적으로 입력전압 및 출력부하 범위가 광범위한 장점이 있으며, 변압기의 누설인덕턴스를 공진인덕터로 이용할 수 있기 때문에 마그네틱 소자를 줄일 수 있는 장점이 있다. 전류제한기능 및 역률개선기능을 포함하고 있는 출력전압 DC24[V], 200[W]급의 LED 조명장치 구동용 하프브리지 LLC 직렬공진형 컨버터의 설계 및 실험을 통해 타당성을 입증하였다.

A bidirectional secondary LLC resonant converter with auxiliary switches and an additional inductor is proposed to achieve the high gain characteristics of LLC resonant convertors. Auxiliary switches, an additional inductor and a resonant capacitor are connected in the high voltage secondary side of the proposed converter. The ac analysis and operating characteristics of bidirectional secondary LLC resonant converter are investigated. A 1kW prototype bidirectional secondary LLC resonant converter connected to the $400V_{DC}$ buses is designed and tested to confirm the validity and applicability of the proposed converter.

Although LLC resonant converters have the advantages of a wide operation range and high efficiency, the lack of an analytical solution for the peak gain makes it difficult to optimize the resonant tank design, when considering not only the normal condition but also the holdup time requirement. In this paper, based on a mathematical analysis of a LLC resonant converter at the peak gain point, an analytical solution for the peak gain has been developed. By using the developed analytical solution, the peak gain with given resonant tank parameters can be obtained. To confirm the validity of the developed analytical solution, simulations and experimental results are compared.

A light emitting diodes(LED) lighting has been increasingly used due to its low power consumption, long life time, high efficiency, and environment friendly characteristics. Also various power converters has been applied to drive these LED lighting. Among many power converters, a LLC resonant converter could be applied for LED lighting because of its high efficiency and high power density. Furthermore, the function of power factor correction(PFC) might be added. In this paper, 1-stage asymmetrical LLC resonant converter is proposed. The proposed converter performs both input-current harmonics reduction and PFC using the discontinuous conduction mode(DCM). The proposed 1-stage LLC resonant converter approach has the lower voltage stress across switching devices and achieve the zero voltage switching(ZVS) in switching devices. To verify the performance of the proposed converter, simulation and experimental results from a 300[W] prototype are provided.

This paper proposes a parametric design of an LLC resonant inverter used for a microwave oven. To improve the harmonic performance of the microwave oven, a current controller with a variable PI gain is proposed. Due to the recent strengthening of harmonics regulations, inverter control technology for microwave ovens is now required to satisfy harmonic performance. In an LLC resonant inverter, the voltage gain varies remarkably depending on the magnetron voltage, output power, and input voltage. To satisfy harmonic performance, a controller that can maintain operation in the zero-voltage switching (ZVS) region and control changes in voltage gain is required. The modified design of the LLC resonant inverter ensures ZVS operation even when the magnetron is heated. Application of the variable current controller improves harmonic control according to the instantaneous gain curve change. The validity of the proposed power control with a variable current controller is verified by experiments with a 1200 W microwave oven.

LLC resonant converter is used to control laser power density in ruby laser power supply. Zero voltage switching(ZVS) is implemented to minimize the switching loss by the LLC resonant converter. Laser output power is investigated and experimented by changing the output current. That current is controled by the charging voltage of capacitor. From those results, we obtained the maximum laser output of 1.94J at the discharge current of 860A and the pulse repetition rate of 1Hz.

In this paper, the 170W LLC half bridge DC-DC converter is designed for the lighting management system. The power conversion circuit consists of PFC and isolated LLC resonant converter. The topology of LLC half bridge resonant converter provides ZVS characteristic. And the stresses of voltage and current is smaller than that of the general resonant converters. So we can expect the higher efficiency. The optimal conditions for high efficiency were investigated through by experiment.
