Design and simulation of multi-element resonant LCTLC converter with HF transformer

The paper deals with design, simulation analysis and experimental verification of electrical properties of resonant converter with LCTLC resonant network. The LCTLC topology belongs to multi-element resonant topologies. The converter consists of the two resonant tanks and HF transformer. The paper shows the design of the resonant elements and shortly the design of HF transformer. First the topology of proposed converter is being described, whereby main focus is given for application field and on possibility of its variable use. Presented analysis and simulation experiments of proposed converter have been performed by OrCAD software. Finally for verification of expected operation, the experimental results of resonant converter with LCTLC elements have been created.
