Referring now to FIGURE 6 a preferred embodiment of the power circuit of the inverter including parallel resonant circuit C3 and the isolation transformer and power transistors Q1 and Q2.In normal operation transistors Q1 and Q2 may be turned on and off alternately supplying power to the isolation transformer.Gate driver U1 may be employed to turn on Q1 and Q2 alternately.The collector voltages of transistors Q1 and Q2 may be sampled by R15 and R16 and attenuated by the voltage divider components R13 and R9 working in conjunction with R15 and R14 and R10 working in conjunction with R16.The attenuated signals may then be applied to transistors Q3 and Q4.Transistors Q3 and Q4 may act as comparators that via C8 and C9 provide pulses to Q6 and Q7 when the collectors of Q1 and Q2 approach zero volts.This in turn alternately switches the states of the two gate drivers when the collectors of Q1 and alternately Q2 are at or close to zero volts.Therefore the onoff transitions of Q1 and Q2 occur at or near when their collector voltages are at zero volts minimizing wasted power dissipation.Feedback from R15 and R16 along with their associated feedback circuits as described earlier operate on the diminishing Q1 and Q2 collector voltages whose rate is determined by the LC resonance presented earlier but influenced strongly by the load characteristics of the external work coil and its target metal piece.This action causes the transitions of Q1 and Q2 the periods of maximum potential wasted heat dissipation as they transfer high power pulses from the input power source to the output of the isolation stepdown transformer to always tend to occur near or at zero collector voltage greatly minimizing the wasted heat losses.
