AN2450 Application note LLC resonant half-bridge converter design guideline Introduction The growing popularity of the LLC resonant converter in its half-bridge implementation (see Figure 1) is due to its high efficiency, low level of EMI emissions, and its ability to achieve high power density. Such features perfectly fit the power supply demand of many modern applications such as LCD and PDP TV or 80+ initiative compliant ATX silver box. One of the major difficulties that engineers are facing with this topology is the lack of information concerning the way the converter operates and, therefore, the way to design it in order to optimize its features. The purpose of this application note is to provide a detailed quantitative analysis of the steady-state operation of the topology that can be easily translated into a design procedure. Exact analysis of LLC resonant converters (see [ 1.] ) leads to a complex model that cannot be easily used to derive a handy design procedure. R. Steigerwald (see [2]) has described a simplified method, applicable to any resonant topology, based on the assumption that input- to-output power transfer is essentially due to the fundamental Fourier series components of currents and voltages. This is what is commonly known as the first harmonic approximation (FHA) technique, which enables the analysis of resonant converters by means of classical complex ac-circuit analysis. This is the approach that has been used in this paper. The sa
