An interleaving and load sharing method for multiphase LLC converters

Interleaving frequency-controlled LLC resonant converters will encounter load-sharing problem due to the tolerance of the resonant components. In this paper, full-wave and half-wave switch-controlled capacitors (SCCs) are used in LLC stages to solve this problem. By using resonant capacitance as a control variable, the output current can be modulated even when all the LLC stages are synchronized at the same switching frequency. A design procedure is developed. A 600W prototype is built to verify the feasibility.
