Abstract

This paper presents the design of Class-E rectifier with dc-to-dc boost converter. In this paper, Class E synchronous rectifier that regulates the output voltage at a fixed switching frequency of 1 MHz is presented by a dc-dc power conversion. The experimental prototype has been built and evaluated. The converter achieved 83.33 percent efficiency with less than 5 percent of ripple percentage of the rectifier. This integrated power converter with class E rectifier provides a low loss operation suitable for Very High Frequency (VHF) applications.
