Q2. What is the design for a high performance converter?
Together with the optimal design of magnetizing inductance, resonant capacitor and turn ratio selection, a high performance converter is built.
Q3. How long does it take to fully discharge Q2?
Drain-to-source voltage for Q2 during ZVS transition timeAdditionally, due to the small ILm_min, it takes several resonant periods to fully discharge Q2.
Q4. What is the design procedure of the AHB flyback converter?
The design procedure, including the resonant capacitor, primary and secondary switches selection and turns ratio design contributes to a high efficiency AHB flyback converter.
Q5. What is the effect of iLr on the primary and secondary RMS currents?
The turn-off current on auxiliary switch Q1 and secondary rectifier is small if the resonant current iLr is close to the magnetizing current iLm at the end of resonance.
Q6. What is the effect of the current dip effect on the converter?
Taking the impact of the current dip effect into consideration, primary and secondary switches are selected to minimize the power loss.
Q7. What is the voltage transfer ratio between the bottom switch and the resonant capacitor?
Based on the assumptions mentioned above, the voltage transfer ratio Vo/Vin and the voltage across the resonant capacitor Vcr can be obtained when voltage second balance is applied to magnetizing inductance Lm.
Q8. Why is the voltage stress for the primary main switch higher than Vin+nVo?
It is also worthwhile to point out that the voltage stress for the primary main switch of ACF is higher than Vin+nVo due to the voltage across the leakage inductance.
Q9. what is the resonant current after the current dip?

Q10. What is the voltage across the transformer primary winding?
When the bottom switch Q2 turns on, the voltage across the transformer primary winding is Vin-Vcr and Q1 is clamped by the input voltage Vin.
Q11. What is the difference between the ACF and AHB flyback converters?
More importantly, since there is no 1-D in the denominator of the voltage transfer ratio for the AHB flyback converter, it is more preferable to be used in voltage step down cases.
Q12. What is the difference between the two resonant circuits?
Equivalent circuit of Lr and Cr resonant processLarge Coss and Cps give longer resonance, which is longer than half resonance period.
