Abstract

A converter comprises a non-isolated stage coupled to an input dc power source, wherein the non-isolated stage is configured to operate at a buck converter mode in response to a first input voltage and operate at a boost converter mode in response to a second input voltage, a resonant stage coupled between the non-isolated stage and a load, wherein the resonant stage is configured to operate at a resonant mode and a capacitor coupled between the non-isolated stage and the resonant stage.
