Design Procedure for Class E Switching Circuits Allowing Implicit Circuit Equations.

This paper presents novel design procedures for class E switching circuits allowing implicit circuit equations. Because of the allowance, circuit simulators can be used in the proposed design procedures. Moreover, the proposed design procedures also allow any conditions considered until now. The proposed design algorithms are implemented by using PSpice and OPTIMUS. This paper shows the design examples of two kinds of class E switching circuits. In particular, the design example of the class E oscillator shows the benefit of the proposed design procedure eminently, i.e., it is unnecessary to make an equivalent model of the semiconductor devices for the design. These design examples show the validity and effectiveness of the proposed design procedures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
