ML4818 Overview
The ML4818 is a plete phase modulation control IC suitable for full bridge soft switching converters. Unlike conventional PWM circuits, the phase modulation technique allows for zero-voltage switching transitions and square wave drive across the transformer. The IC modulates the phases of the two sides of the bridge to control output power.
