CHAPTER 3
Half- and Full-Bridge
Converter Topologies
3.1 Introduction
Half-bridge and full-bridge topologies stress their transistors to a voltage equal to the DC input voltage not to twice this value, as do the push-pull, single-ended, and interleaved forward converter to pologies. Thus the bridge topologies are used mainly in offline converters where supply voltage would be more than the switching transistors could safely tolerate. Bridge topologies are almost always used where the normal AC input voltage is 220 V or higher, and frequently even for 120-V AC inputs.
An additional valuable feature of the bridge topologies is that primary leakage inductance spikes (Figures 2.1 and 2.10) are easily clamped to the DC supply bus and the energy stored in the leakage inductance is returned to the input instead of having to be dissipated in a resistive snub -ber element.
