    Abstract: In an Input-Series-Output-Parallel (ISOP)-type power converter circuit, a DC-to-DC converter has a positive input coupled to a DC power source and a negative input connected to a negative output. A plurality of capacitors are coupled in series between a positive output of the converter and a circuit ground, the negative output of the converter coupled to a common node of first and second capacitors. A half-bridge inverter network is coupled between the positive output and a circuit ground, each inverter having an input respectively coupled to the first capacitor and the second capacitor. A plurality of resonant tanks are coupled to an output of a respective one of first and second half-bridge inverters. A transformer is coupled to outputs of the plurality of resonant tanks. A rectifier circuit is coupled to a secondary winding of the transformer to provide a DC output voltage.

    Abstract: A method comprises detecting a signal representing a drain-to-source voltage of a switch of a synchronous rectifier of an inductor-inductor-capacitor (LLC) resonant converter, comparing the signal with a predetermined threshold, generating a first logic state if the drain-to-source voltage is greater than the predetermined threshold, generating a second logic state if the drain-to-source voltage is less than the predetermined threshold and in response to the first logic state and the second logic state, adjusting a switching frequency of the LLC resonant converter such that the switching frequency moves back and forth across a boundary of body diode conduction, wherein a frequency difference between the switching frequency and a resonant frequency of the LLC resonant converter is less than or equal to one frequency adjustment step.

    Abstract: A converter is provided. The converter includes a first DC/DC converter, a non-isolated DC/DC converter and a control circuit. The first DC/DC converter includes a transformer, a primary side inverter and a secondary side rectifier. The primary side inverter and a secondary side rectifier are operable at multiple operating modes. The control circuit determines an operating mode for the primary side inverter or the secondary side rectifier, and controls the primary side inverter or the secondary side rectifier to change its respective operating mode.
