Base values:
VB = Vin ,min, ZB = (Lr /Cs )1/2 , IB =VB /ZB .

Converter gain:
M = Vo /VB , J = (Id /nt )/IB . Vo = nt Vo .

NORMALIZED LOAD CURRENT:

Normalized switching frequency:

F = s /r = fs /fr , r =1/(LrCs )1/2 .

The values of Lr and Cs are calculated using the following equations Lr =(M J V B2/Po)(F/2 fs)

Cs =(F Po/2 fs M J VB2) Lr /Lp , the ratio of series resonant inductor Lr to parallel inductor Lp (= Lt = nt2Lt );

Then, the transformer turns ratio nt = (Deff )(Vin )/Vo = 0.567. The output filter inductor is Lo =[(Vin/nt ) Vo ](Deff )/[(Id)(2fs )]=7.5 H. The value of Lr is given By Lr =(ntVin) (1 Deff )/[(4Id )(fs )]= 0.212 H.
