Abstract:
A resonant DC-DC converter used to drive an LED array includes a half-bridge converter configured to receive DC input power and produce a square wave voltage. A resonant tank circuit that includes an inductive element, a first resonance capacitor, and a second resonance capacitor, is coupled to the half-bridge converter to receive the square wave voltage such that a generally sinusoidal AC voltage is produced across the second resonance capacitor. An output transformer with a primary winding and one or more secondary windings, is coupled in parallel to the second resonance capacitor, and a clipping circuit is coupled to the primary winding such that the voltage across the primary winding does not substantially exceed the voltage of the DC input power. An output rectifier is coupled to the one or more secondary windings of the output transformer and is configured to produce a generally DC output voltage.
