A DC power converter consisting of a series-resonant branch used to transform a DC voltage source into a DC current source exhibiting, a uni-polar, zero-current-switching characteristic. Frequency of the series-resonant branch, acting in concert with reflected load parameters, provides a forced oscillation frequency, Fo, component to an AC voltage source generated across the input winding of a power transformer by the resonant capacitor. Complex load parameters allow AC input current, displaced by 90° from the AC voltage source, to flow in the transformer primary winding throughout a composite, carrier-frequency cycle. Another component of the carrier-frequency consists of a resonant, natural oscillation frequency, Fn, resulting from resonance by the AC voltage source capacitance with the open-circuit inductance of the primary winding on the input power transformer. The composite carrier-frequency, Fo+Fn, transported through the input power transformer is directed to a rectifier/filter assembly and applied as a DC voltage to an output load. Thus, the uni-polar DC series-resonant branch is converted into an AC power transfer function, fully isolated from the input power switch, by the AC voltage source capacitor. The power transfer function characterizing a bi-polar power inverter requires a single power switch referenced to the input power return bus.
