Abstract
This paper presents an improved ZCT (Zero-Current-Transition) PWM DC/DC Boost Converter without additional current stress and conduction loss on the main switch during the resonance period of the auxiliary cell. The auxiliary cell consists of a resonance inductor, a resonant capacitor, an auxiliary switch and the Zero-Current-Switching ranges of the main and the auxiliary switch of the proposed converters are entirely achieved by operating the auxiliary cell. Then Improved ZCT soft switching converter will be discussed. Therefore, the proposed converter has a high efficiency. To show the superiority of this converter is verified through the experiment with a 640W, 50kHz prototype converter.
