Hey guys,
I'm new to the forum and am working on a small ZVS induction heater.
I think I pretty much got it down, but I've been searching the forum (& the rest of the internet) for days and can't find a concrete explanation on exactly how it's wired up.
This is what I figured out so far:
Positive current: Connects to the choke --> center tap of working coil & the resistors?
Negative current: Connects to the mosfets source pins?
Diodes: Connect from the gate of mosfet (a) to the drain of mosfet (b) -- and vice versa.
Resistors: Connect from the gate of each mosfet to the (+) current
Mosfets:
-- Gate: Only connected to the diodes and resistors
-- Drain: Connects to the leg of the work coil & the diode
-- Source: Connects to the (-) current?
If anyone could give me some feedback, it'd be super helpful. I'm mostly confused about how to connect the mosfets' source pins, the resistors, and also how to connect the negative current cable. Thanks!
