• Voltage-bidirectional two-quadrant switch for half-wave cell

• Current-bidirectional two-quadrant switch for full-wave cell

Connection of resonant elements:

Can be connected in other ways that preserve high-frequency
components of tank waveforms

 A test to determine the topology
of a resonant switch network
Replace converter elements by their high-frequency equivalents:
• Independent voltage source Vg: short circuit
• Filter capacitors: short circuits
• Filter inductors: open circuits
The resonant switch network remains.

If the converter contains a ZCS Lr SW

quasi-resonant switch, then the +
result of these operations is
