Abstract  GaN devices typically have a reverse voltage drop above 1.8V, and the reverse conduction loss of the GaN device on the primary switch exceeds 15% in a 1MHz LLC converter. A low reverse conduction loss control is proposed to reduce the reverse conduction loss in the primary switch of the GaN-based 1MHz LLC resonance converter. The basic idea of the proposed control is to shorten the reverse conduction time of the primary switch on the premise of ensuring zero voltage switching (ZVS). The output capacitance discharge model is built to calculate the dead time and determine the turn-on instant of the primary switch. A 400W 1MHz GaN-based LLC converter with radiation-hardened GaN devices is built to verify the proposed dead time control. Compared with the fixed dead time strategy, the loss of the primary switch is decreased by 32% under 10% load and 16% under full load, respectively.
