Abstract:
A resonant inverter of a power supply for electric vehicle includes a first resonant capacitor and a switching element cutting off a current flowing in a resonant circuit and generates first alternating-current power from direct-current power. The transformer is included in a part of the resonant circuit, supplies the first alternating-current power generated by the resonant inverter to a first winding, and supplies second alternating-current power after conversion of the first alternating-current power to a load from a second winding. A control unit confines a difference between a resonant frequency of the resonant circuit and a switching frequency of the switching element to a predetermined range to cause that a current flowing in switching of the switching element to at least the first winding or the second winding is equal to or less than a predetermined value and to cause the resonant inverter to perform soft switching.
