The deficiency of power is an enormous issue due to higher growth demands among the utility customers which led the focus on renewable energy sources for electricity generation. Solar energy has gained high popularity due to highly abundant, clean, economical and sustainable when compared to other alternative energy sources. The DC-DC converter topologies are used in solar photovoltaic (PV) applications for power conversion due to less cost, highly reliable, highly efficient, and robust operation. These converters incorporate a wide variety of voltage variations and protection against overvoltage. In the recent times, solar power converters using various soft switching techniques due to high switching frequencies which reduce the size, cost, weight and loss of the converter. The series resonant power converters are one such soft switching converter which is widely employed due to their high - efficiency with the benefit of low switching losses. The paper confers on the analysis of Series Loaded Resonant Converter with low loss switching by applying solar PV as an input source. The converter behaviour is observed in various operating modes concerning the resonant frequency. The design parameters of the proposed converter are validated in MATLAB/SIMULINK environment.
