Abstract

This paper proposes to use a 20[kHz] phase­shifted Full-Bridge (FB) Zero-Voltage-Switched (ZVS) PWM converter in order to drive a 600[W] magnetron, and analyzes the operational modes in a switching period. Additionally, the controller of the average anode current is designed. Simulation studies and experiments verify that the proposed converter and the average anode current controller shows good performance to drive the magnetron.
