A contactless power transfer system, including a coil configured to supply or receive power contactlessly via magnetic coupling, a bridge circuit having two direct current (DC) terminals and two alternating current (AC) terminals, and a smoothing capacitor connected between the DC terminals. A load is connectable to either end of the smoothing capacitor. One of the AC terminals is connected to one end of the coil via a first capacitor. The other of the AC terminals is connected to the other end of the coil. The bridge circuit includes two serially-connected circuits each having upper and lower arms, each arm having a semiconductor switch and a diode in reverse parallel connection. A second capacitor is connected in parallel to the semiconductor switch of an upper arm, or of a lower arm, or to two semiconductor switches respectively of an upper arm and of a lower arms, of the bridge circuit. |
