I. Introduction
Nowadays, the demand for high-efficiency and high-power density converters has grown [1]. To meet this requirement, the resonant DC-DC converters have substantial attention because of their superior characteristics, such as reduced switching losses and high switching frequency capability that can achieve high-power density [2]. In particular, the LLC resonant converter stands out as the most attractive candidate because it has zero-voltage switching (ZVS) operation in the entire load conditions, as shown in Fig. 1 [3], [4]. Therefore, it has been widely used for the on-board charger in electric vehicles, lighting-emitting diode driver, fuel cell system, renewable energy generation, and so on [5]- [7].
