摘要
High switching frequency is an effective method to improve power density for LLC resonant converters. However, conventional digital controllers, such as general-purpose digital signal processors andmicroprocessors, have limited frequency resolution, which induces high primary-and secondary-side current variation and leads to poor output voltage regulation. In this paper, a hybrid control method combining pulse frequency modulation (PFM) and pulse width modulation is proposed to overcome the limited frequency resolution issue. The proposed hybrid control method focuses on steady-state operation, and its operating principles are introduced and analyzed. In addition, the proper magnetizing inductance and dead time duration are derived to ensure that the power mosfets achieve zero voltage switching with the proposed control method. The improved voltage regulation performance is compared with the conventional PFM control and verified through simulation and experimental results using a 240 W prototype converter operating at a switching frequency of 1 MHz.
