Abstract
Pulse width modulation quasi-resonant voltage inverter including a bridge (2) and an oscillating circuit consisting of an inductance (5) in series with the voltage source (1) and of a capacitor (6) in parallel with the bridge (2), the sampling period was much greater than the resonance period, characterized in that it includes a controlled component operating in blocked/saturated mode (7) in parallel with the capacitor (6) and a voltage sensor (8) parallel with the capacitor (6), the component (7) being controlled by the sensor (8) so as to short-circuit the capacitor (6) when the voltage across the latter's terminals is zero and to enable the transitions of the signal for control of the pulse width modulation regulation.
