Class E low dv/dt and low di/dt rectifiers: energy transfer, comparison, compact relationships

Conclusions are drawn from a comparison of the 15 class E low dv/dt and low di/dt rectifiers analyzed so far, which may help in further study and in circuit choice. New simpler and conspicuous analytical relationships have been derived for the normalized load resistance and other circuit parameters as functions of the diode conduction duty factor. The optimum operating frequencies, the domains of parameter values and the function of different components are emphasized.
