Device description
The L6599 is a double-ended controller specific for the resonant half-bridge topology. It provides 50% complementary duty cycle: the high-side switch and the low-side switch are driven ON 180° out-of-phase for exactly the same time.
Output voltage regulation is obtained by modulating the operating frequency. A fixed deadtime inserted between the turn-OFF of one switch and the turn-ON of the other one guarantees soft-switching and enables high-frequency operation.
