    摘要: An induction hob includes at least one heating induction coil and a switching converter. The switching converter includes a DC-bus having a high-side line, a low-side line and a plurality of half-bridge switching stages. A C-L-C resonant tank defined by the heat induction coil electrically connected in series between the two capacitors is installed on the circuit board and is connected between two intermediate current terminals of two half-bridge switching stages. Each capacitor is connected in series to the induction heating coil and to the intermediate current terminal of a respective half-bridge switching stage, wherein the C-L-C resonant tank may be magnetically coupled with a respective load. The intermediate current terminal of each half-bridge switching stage is directly connected to a capacitor. Each half-bridge switching stage and the respective capacitor directly connected thereto are installed on the same circuit board.

    摘要: A switching power conversion apparatus for converting power from an input voltage source to a load includes first and second switches connected to a switching node. An inductive element has a magnetizing current connected to the node, and the inductive element is connected to deliver energy via the first and second switches from the input voltage to the load during a succession of power conversion cycles. A capacitance connected to the node resonates with the inductive element to cause parasitic oscillation. A clamp subcircuit across the inductive element contains an auxiliary switch to trap energy and prevent parasitic oscillation, wherein the auxiliary switch is complementary to the first switch. A controlled voltage source injects energy in the inductive element, when the auxiliary switch turns off to discharge the parasitic capacitance by using trapped energy in the inductive element in addition to injected energy from the controlled voltage source.
