Design procedures for moderate-Wattage offline PWM voltage converters that use an LLC half-bridge in the dc-dc converter stage. There’s a substantial trend in offline converters operating at a ...

Design engineers often turn to push-pull, half-bridge, and full-bridge power-converter designs for higher power output. These architectures show up from 200 W to 500 W and beyond.

Figure 1. Half-Bridge Power Converter There are three operational states for a Half-Bridge power converter, shown in Figures 2 through 4. When the upper primary switch (Q2) is active, the voltage ...

The design allows variable frequency control with 50% duty cycle for half-bridge resonant converter. In addition to internal SuperFETs with fast recovery type body diode, the design has a fixed dead ...

In the BM6GD11BFJ-LB data sheet is a half-bridge application circuit (figure 28, right, slightly modified for clarity). It is a classic bootstrapped circuit (explained far below) for driving silicon ...

In parallel, research published in 2024 proposed a hybrid converter that integrates a phase-shifted full-bridge design with a half-bridge LLC converter via a novel clamp circuit.
