ABSTRACT
A four-element power resonant converter — cascade reverse double Γ-LC resonant power converter (RPC) — will be discussed in this chapter. Since the first element is an inductor, the power supply should be a bipolar voltage source. Do remember that the first element of CSRIs in previous chapters is a capacitor, therefore, a bipolar current source was employed. The major work is concentrated on the analysis of steady-state operation, dynamic behavior, and control specialties of the novel resonant converter. The simulation and experimental results show that this resonant converter has many distinct advantages over the existing two or three element resonant converters and overcomes their drawbacks.
