NONLINEAR RESONANT SWITCH AND CONVERTER Abstract of the Disclosure A nonlinear resonant switch for power conversion devices and a converter using the switch are described. The switch optimizes converter efficiency by switching only when current is zero and by limiting the peak current to a value near that provided by conventional PWM converters. A nonlinear reactor having a winding in series with the switch and a tank circuit is biased to saturation at low currents but is driven into an unsaturated condition by high currents so that a resultant high series inductance mitigates further current increase. Several converter topologies incorporating this improvement are shown.
