Design of 5-kV/5-kW Magnetron Power Supply Using PWM SRC With PISO-Connected Transformer.

This paper suggests a design of pulsewidth modulation series-resonant converter (PWM SRC) for magnetron power supplies. The goal of this design is to make the PWM SRC have a wide output voltage maintaining mode 3 operation that shows good switching characteristics. To keep the mode 3 operation, a systematic design is required because the design is related to various parameters, such as resonant tank, transformer turns-ratio, magnetizing inductance, and duty-ratio. To establish the design procedure, converter analysis is performed related to the steady-state operation, input–output relationship, and critical design conditions, and several design equations are derived based on the analysis. Based on the design procedure, a PWM SRC with parallel-input-series-output-connected transformer has been designed for magnetron power supplies and verified. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
