Novel zero-current-switching-zero-voltage-switching converters

PESC Record. 27th Annual IEEE Power Electronics Specialists Conference, 2002
A new family of zero-current-switching-zero-voltage-switching (ZCSZVS) pulse-width-modulation (PWM) converters are proposed. With the proposed ZCSZVS concept, the PSPICE simulation results of the application to a single-switch three-phase PFC rectifier have been obtained and compared with those of hard-switching and ZCT applications in order to show ...

Charge control for zero-voltage-switching multiresonant converter

IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics, 1996
The operation of zero-voltage-switching multi-resonant power converters (ZVSMRCs) limits the use of peak current-mode control. The charge control technique is found applicable to ZVSMRCs for improving dynamic performance. Charge control compares the total charge of the switch current to the control voltage to modulate the switching frequency. Since the

A simple zero-voltage-switching boost converter

Proceedings IEEE Southeastcon '98 'Engineering for a New Era', 2002
In this paper, a new type of PWM boost zero-voltage-switching converter is presented. The new soft-switching converter is formed by adding only two auxiliary components to a conventional boost converter, namely: an active switch and a resonant inductor. The voltage stresses on both the main and auxiliary switches are fixed at V/sub g/+V/sub o/ and they

GTO characterization for zero voltage switching applications

PESC '91 Record 22nd Annual IEEE Power Electronics Specialists Conference, 2002
GTO applications limitations are investigated under hard and soft switching topologies as device output power and device switching frequency are simultaneously increased. Characterization test results and a P-Spice GTO model simulating device turn-off are used in the investigation.

On the saturable inductor commutation for zero-voltage switching

21st Annual IEEE Conference on Power Electronics Specialists, 2002
A novel method of high frequency switching is presented, where a small saturable inductor is used for the zero-voltage switching. The saturated conditions of the inductor is satisfied by the use of a PWM (pulse width modulation) controller with a saturable core or by the use of a saturable transformer with current feedback. The switching losses and the

A zero voltage switching forward converter topology

Proceedings of Power and Energy Systems in Converging Markets, 2002
A zero voltage switching forward converter topology is presented in this paper. The topology employs an auxiliary circuit. Only a few small rating components and devices are added. The merits of the proposed topology include: lossless switching independent of the input and load conditions, simple control and power circuitry, and ability to operate in ...

Zero voltage switching approach for flyback converter

[Proceedings] Fourteenth International Telecommunications Energy Conference - INTELEC '92, 2003
A zero voltage switched flyback power converter which realizes soft switching for every semiconductor is proposed. The sinusoidal resonant current flows through the secondary side rectifier diode and zero current switching of the diode is realized. Diode recovery is not generated.

PWM boost converter with zero-voltage-switching

[Proceedings] 1992 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics, 2003
By adding a second transistor, a zero-voltage-switched (ZVS) quasi-resonant boost converter can be shown to be controllable using a constant frequency control scheme. The new topology differs from a zero-voltage-switched quasi-resonant boost converter by the addition of an extra switch in parallel with the resonant inductor.

A novel zero voltage switched PWM converter

Proceedings of the 1992 International Conference on Industrial Electronics, Control, Instrumentation, and Automation, 2003
A novel approach to realizing zero voltage switching for high-frequency PWM (pulse-width modulation) power converters is presented. By controlling an auxiliary circuit associated with the main switching devices, these devices can be turned off at zero voltage condition.

Analysis of a Zero Voltage Switching Cuk Converter

IECON 2007 - 33rd Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society, 2007
A boost type zero voltage switching (ZVS) isolated Cuk converter is presented in this paper to reduce the switching losses of main switch. An auxiliary switch and a clamp capacitor are connected in parallel with the main switch to absorb all the energy stored in the leakage inductance of the transformer.
