Abstract
The present invention is to provide a series resonant converter, which includes a transformer, two power switches connected to primary side of the transformer, a resonant control chip having two control pins connected to gates of the two power switches respectively, a resonant capacitor having one end connected to one end of the primary side and the other end connected to source of one power switch, a resonant inductor having one end connected to the other end of the primary side and the other end connected to a line between the two power switches, and at least one bypass resistor connected in parallel to the resonant capacitor, so as to allow voltage of the resonant capacitor to be rapidly released to ground when the converter is turned off and effectively lower inrush current of the resonant capacitor generated at an instant when the converter is turned on from off.
