Efficiency Improvement for a DC-DC Quadratic Power Boost Converter by Applying a Switch Turn-off Lossless Snubber Structure Based on Zero Voltage Switching

open access: yesElektronika ir Elektrotechnika, 2018
So as to keep the converter in small size, high switching frequencies are normally used. As a result, in higher frequencies, switching losses seriously affect the efficiency.

Switching characteristics and efficiency improvement with auxiliaryresonant snubber based soft-switching inverters [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The auxiliary resonant snubber inverter (RSI) has demonstrated superiority in reduction of switching losses and dv/dt. It was found that the overall inverter system efficiency might not be improved if the resonant current was not controlled in accordance

DC-SSCB Snubber for Electric Propulsion Ships With Effective Surge Voltage Reduction and Fast Dissipation of Fault Current Energy

open access: yesIEEE Access
This paper proposes a snubber circuit for SSCB that performs voltage clamping operation in two stages to reduce surge voltage. The surge voltage is suppressed in the first stage using a MOV with low operating initiation and clamping voltages.

An integrated modelling and parameter design method for the RC snubber in novel cascode GaN‐based bridge convertors

open access: yesIET Power Electronics, 2022
The utilization of novel cascode GaN devices can significantly increase the power density and the efficiency of convertors. However, owing to high switching speed (high dv/dt or di/dt) and inevitable parasitic inductance in device packages and external ...

Ultra High Step‐Up Soft Switching Converter Based on the Interleaved Structure

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 1, Page 540-556, January 2026.
The proposed topology provides high voltage gain and enhanced efficiency at low duty cycles, thereby reducing conduction losses in the switches. Its interleaved structure ensures current sharing, while the switches experience both low voltage and low current stress, further decreasing conduction losses.
