Abstract
Systems and methods for electrical power conversion include the provision of a full-bridge tunnel diode inverter topology which provides a balanced push-pull drive voltage and current across the entire transformer primary. Moreover, the full-bridge tunnel diode inverter may avoid operating its tunnel diodes in a high-current/high-voltage state at light loads, unlike a single-diode inverter. The disclosed principles also allow a full-bridge tunnel diode inverter topology that may avoid RF chirps in the tunnel diodes during rising or falling device ramp currents since the primary current passes through two tunnel diodes in series.
