Designing a High-Power LLC Resonant Half-Bridge DC-DC Converter (.PDF Download)

The quest for higher power and greater efficiency in all power supplies never ends, especially when it comes to all heavy-duty converters. Some examples are power supplies used in data centers, telecom facilities, industrial automation, solar inverters, and automotive battery chargers.

In such cases, dc-dc converters are typically the prime target. Currently multiple designs exist. As a designer, you’re probably tempted to take the traditional design route. But what if you found out about an alternative approach combining a unique power circuit and a microcontroller (MCU) that could deliver a truly improved product? You just may want to consider this approach.
