Resonant Power Converters

This book is devoted to resonant energy conversion in power electronics. It is a practical, systematic guide to the analysis and design of various dc–dc resonant inverters, high–frequency rectifiers, and dc–dc resonant converters that are building blocks of many of today′s high–frequency energy processors. Designed to function as both a superior senior–to–graduate level textbook for electrical engineering courses and a valuable professional reference for practicing engineers, it provides students and engineers with a solid grasp of existing high–frequency technology, while acquainting them with a number of easy–to–use tools for the analysis and design of resonant power circuits. Resonant power conversion technology is now a very hot area and in the center of the renewable energy and energy harvesting technologies.
