Abstract:
The present invention proposes a control circuit and a method of controlling a resonant converter comprising a full-bridge configuration in the following manner: during each half period of a plurality of periods of a resonant current of the resonant converter, starting from an initial state ( 500 ) in which a diagonal pair are conductive, turning off ( 510 ) a first switch member of the diagonal pair on the basis of the voltage control signal; turning on ( 520 ), after the turn-off of the first switch member, a switch member in series connection with the first switch member prior to a zero crossing (E 5 ) of the resonant current; turning off ( 530 ), after the turn-off of the first switch member, a second switch member of the diagonal pair prior to the zero crossing (ES); and turning on ( 540 ), after the turn-off of the second switch member, a switch member in series connection with the second switch member prior to the zero crossing event of the resonant current.

Claim (Index 11):
The control circuit of  claim 2 , wherein the switch encoder comprises:\n a zero crossing predictor for providing a synchronizing signal on the basis of the zero crossing-predicting signal and the zero crossings of the resonant current; a counter for providing a phase signal on the basis of the voltage control signal and the synchronizing signal; and a digital encoder for providing a drive signal for each switch member on the basis of the phase signal.
