SERIES-PARALLEL RESONANT INVERTERS

摘要

A series-parallel resonant inverter inductively couples a switchable DC power source, which has a positive reference voltage node, a negative voltage reference node and a common reference node to a load. The load comprises a parallel resonator that is inductively coupled to the work piece and a series resonator. The series and parallel resonators each preferably has impedance, where the series circuit's impedance is greater than the impedance of the parallel circuit. The series resonator could include a high impedance inductor and a DC blocking capacitor in series with each other.
