Summary

There are many power electronics applicationsin which one converts power between dc andhigh-frequency sinusoidal ac. In applications suchas induction heating, plasma generation,fluorescent lamp ballasts, electro-surgical tools,radio-frequency (RF) welding, and RFcommunications, the ac waveform is the converteroutput. In other applications, such as wirelesspower transfer and resonant dc/dc converters, ahigh-frequency sinusoid is an intermediatewaveform in the overall conversion process.
