Induction heating circuits for cooking appliances.

摘要

An induction heating circuit for a cooking appliance includes an inverter for powering a pan heating coil (L2) and a resonating capacitor (CR) at values determined by a gate turn off thyristor (VT1). A further semi-conductor switching device (VTS) is included to permit discharge of the resonating capacitor (CR) before the initation of power input to the pan coil (L2).
