Avoiding capacitive-mode operation by a new LLC Resonant Converter control method Author: Yong Peng(+86, Jun Liu Abstract: in this paper, a novel control method for LLC converter is proposed to avoid capacitive-mode operation, which is implemented by DSP controller. The real-time input voltage and output voltage is being monitored, a minimum frequency limit is calculated with the values of them. The LLC resonant converter is constantly operating above the minimum frequency limit to avoid capacitive-mode operation. The higher reliability is achieved by this control method. Index Terms: avoiding capacitive-mode operation, LLC converter control method, DSP controller.  1. Introduction LLC converter is being widely used in power supply industry for its noticeable merits. Hence, the reliability of which is getting more and more attentions. Going into capacitive-mode operation is a primary risk to its reliability [1]. As it showed in Fig 1, when it goes into capacitive-mode operation, the resonant current Ir leads to input voltage, the resonant current Ir flows in the body diode of low side MOSFET Q2 before high side MOSFET Q1 turns on. The reverse recovery current of body diode of low side MOSFET Q2 is inevitable, when high side MOSFET Q1 turns on. Sometimes, a fixed minimum frequency limit can effectively keep LLC resonant converter from capacitive operation. However, a fixed minimum frequency is not a guaranteed success to avoid capacitive-mode operation, the shoot-through occurs in conditions, such as startup, overload, dynamic load, etc. Hence, to avoid high reverse recovery current, which may causes MOSFET failure, MOSFETs with fast recovery diode are required in LLC converter. Fig 1 LLC Resonant Converter In this paper, a novel LLC resonant converter control method that can avoid capacitive-mode operation is proposed. This paper is organized as follows: section 2 is theoretical analysis of how to avoid capacitive-mode operation, section 3 presents
