This paper presents a new design approach for the soft-switching resonant converter with satisfying multiple conditions. As an example, FM controlled class-E is designed. By applying inverter at part, works high efficiency frequencies. The has, however, problems, which are peak value of switch voltage and difficulty zero-voltage switching continuation against load variations. Additionally, there restriction on transformer voltage. In proposed approach, we can find proper component values,...

The elucidation of the mechanism for steel corrosion under a coating layer has been attracting research attention. Herein, we utilized confocal micro-X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analytical instrument to conduct non-destructive elemental analysis near surface sheet. Using this method, map images sheet cross sections were obtained without sample destruction. To confirm suppression in presence Mg ions, observed behavior hot-dip galvanized sheets immersed an aqueous NaCl solution which ions added....

This paper proposes the phase-controlled class-D inverter with clamp diodes. In proposed inverter, one of resonant inductance is divided into two components and diodes are added to middle point inductance. By adding diodes, over currents can be suppressed effectively.
