Class-E DC-AC resonant inverter design centering

Tolerance analysis is crucial in industrial production of power electronics converters. This paper presents an application of the design centering for resonant converters. Actually, this technique has been successfully utilized to increase the quality of analog and integrated circuits built on a large scale, but it has never been utilized for resonant converter circuits. The effect on the power mosfet switching of passive components constituting the resonant tank of a class-E DC-AC is considered. The paper also provides actions to increase the converter circuit reliability.
