LLC half-bridge design
Hi all,
currently I develop a half-bridge LLC with centre tapped and I need somre help to optimize my design. My specifications are:
- 400Vdc input to 40-60Vdc output and 35A (output).
- The switching frequency is between 91kHz and 225kHz, resonant frequency 151kHz.
- Core: PQ50/50 (N97) from TDK.
- Windings: primary 15 turns (38 AWG w 450 strands)
secondary 3 turns (16 mil copper foil)
- Winding distribution: PSPS: 8-3-3-7
I am operating the converter equal to or below resonance region and the core losses estimation is around 10W and I need to reduce them.
Are the winding pattern and core size correct?
