Abstract: The switching frequency of an LLC converter (11) is controlled by a control unit (61) to which a feedback circuit (52-54) provides a first current (Ifdbk) dependent upon the output voltage of the converter. An oscillator circuit (84-88) produces a sawtooth waveform (Lrmp) at a frequency dependent upon the first current, up to a limit equal to a second current (Ifmax) set by a resistor (50). Two complementary switch control signals (A, B) are produced for controlling two switches (29, 31) of the converter for conduction in alternate cycles of the sawtooth waveform. A timer (63) produces dead times between the two complementary switch control signals in dependence upon the second current. Another resistor (51) provides a current constituting a minimum value of the first current, and a charging current of a capacitor (56) in series with a resistor (55) modifies the first current for soft starting of the converter.
