The Control and stabilization of resonant converters are essential problem in power electronics. The conventional controller design and stability analysis for the converters are based on the linearized average model. Nevertheless, the state variables in resonant converters have large ac variations and the validity of the linearized average model is violated. Hence, using large signalv and non- averaged models are necessary for controller design and stability analysis. In this paper, a new hybrid controller is presented that is applicable to dc–dc series resonant converters and use neither r averaging nor small signal approximation. The dc–dc resonant converters are inherently switched affine systems with constrained switching law. The proposed controller is based on the switched behavior of the converter and the concept of piece wise affine methodology. Moreover, it has switched inner and proportional-integral (PI) outer control loops and does not require a modulator The large signal and closed loop stability analysis of the resonant converters is presented by a theorem. The minimum phase attribute of the control system is investigated by zero dynamic stability analysis. The proposed controller has less complexity in comparison to other suggested controllers and can be implemented using simple analog circuits. The simulation and experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
