Abstract
The inductor inductor capacitor (LLC) resonant topology has become more popular for deployment in high power density and high-efficiency power converter applications due to its ability to maintain zero voltage switching (ZVS) over a wider input voltage range. Due to their ease of operation and acceptable accuracy, frequency domain-related analytical methods using fundamental harmonic approximation (FHA) have been frequently utilized for resonant converters. However, when the switching frequency is far from the resonant frequency, the circuit currents contain a large number of harmonics, which cannot be ignored. Therefore, the FHA is incapable of guiding the design when the LLC converter is used to operate in a wide input voltage range applications due to its inaccuracy. As a result, a precise LLC converter model is needed. Time domain analysis is a precise analytical approach for obtaining converter attributes, which supports in the optimal sizing of LLC converters. This work strives to give a precise and an approximation-free time domain analysis for the exact modeling of high-frequency resonant converters. A complete mathematical analysis for an LLC resonant converter operating in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM)—i.e., the boost mode of operation below resonance—is presented in this paper. The proposed technique can confirm that the converter operates in PO mode throughout its working range; in addition, for primary MOSFET switches, it guarantees the ZVS and zero current switching (ZCS) for the secondary rectifier. As a function of frequency, load, and other circuit parameters, closed-form solutions are developed for the converter’s tank root mean square (RMS) current, peak stress, tank capacitor voltage, voltage gain, and zero voltage switching angle. Finally, an 8 KW LLC resonant converter is built in the hardware-in-loop (HIL) testing method on RT-LAB OP-5700 to endorse the theoretical study.
