Queen’s Partnerships and Innovation is pleased to report the issuance of U.S. Patent No. 11,394,307 entitled, "Resonant Power Converters and Control Methods for Wide Input and Output Voltage Ranges," on July 19, 2022 to Yang Chen and Yan-Fei Liu. The patent relates to resonant converters with wide voltage gain ranges achieved by controlling at least one of the primary side resonant circuit and the secondary side rectifier circuit. A switch is included in at least one of the primary or secondary sides, and control of the switch according to a selected mode determines an output voltage of the resonant converter.
