Abstract:
According to an implementation, a resonant converter for detecting non-zero voltage switching includes an oscillator configured to generate a first clock signal to drive a first power switch, and a second clock signal to drive a second power switch. The resonant converter includes a non-zero voltage switching (non-ZVS) detection circuit configured to receive an integrated current sense signal sensed on a primary side of a transformer of a resonant network, and determine a polarity of a voltage of the integrated current sense signal at a predetermined point in the first clock signal or the second clock signal during a switching cycle. The non-ZVS detection circuit is configured to detect a non-ZVS event based on the polarity of the voltage of the integrated current sense signal at the predetermined point in the first clock signal or the second clock signal during the switching cycle.
