For this application, Solace has developed a hybrid inverter topology which incorporates a half-bridge synchronous buck converter into the inverter. The buck converter is a pain point in the topology — to limit the size of magnetic components, it is desirable to operate the buck at relatively high frequency (>300 kHz). However, switching loss in […]
