  • Page 11: Operating Principle

    Operation principle The power stage in Master- and Mastertig- power sources is a traditional half-bridge, where the intermediate circuit´s dc-voltage is halved by load capacitors C2 and C3. IGBT-transistors are used as power switches. When both IGBTs are not conductive, no power is transferred. When the upper IGBT (V2) is conductive, there is positive voltage in the main transformer´s (T1) primary, and when the lower IGBT (V3) is conductive there is negative voltage in the main transformer´s (T1) primary.
