Abstract
A new method for achieving self-oscillating, self-interleaved operation of class E derived resonant DC/DC converters is presented. The proposed method is suitable for operation at frequencies in the Very High Frequency (VHF) band. Interleaved and self-oscillating modes of operation are achieved at the same time with very small number of additional passive components in the interconnection network. To verify the proposed technique, a 110MHz prototype resonant boost converter was designed; experimental results and comparison with SPICE simulation are presented. Peak measured efficiency was 89% in continuous operation.
