Zusammenfassung:Control of a resonant power converter using switch paths during power-up is described herein. During power-up, a first switch path sinks current away from a resonant capacitor while a second switch path sources current to a high-side capacitor. In this way the high-side capacitor may predictably charge to sufficient bootstrap voltage for steady state operation. Additionally, a third switch path may control current to a low-side capacitor.
