Steady-state analysis of the parallel resonant converter withLLCC-type commutation network

A novel converter topology known as LLCC-type parallel resonant converter (PRC-LLCC), in which the tank circuit consists of two inductors and two capacitors, is introduced. Using the state-plane approach, the steady-state analysis of the PRC-LLCC operating in the continuous conduction model is carried out. It is shown that by using the state variable transformation technique the steady-state response of the converter can be represented by two state-plane diagrams. Using these diagrams and the circuit equations, a set of control characteristic curves which are useful for converter design is derived. Based on these curves, a design procedure along with a specific design example is given. The correctness of the analysis results is verified via computer simulations
