The zero voltage and zero current switching(ZVZCS) full bridge (FB) PWM converter using secondary active clamp is characterized by high efficiency, good ZVZCS characteristic, simple topology and low cost. But at the period for discharge of the secondary clamp capacitor, peak pulses and ringing pulse occur in rectified secondary side of the converter. In this paper, a novel secondary active clamp circuit for the ZVZCS FB PWM converter is proposed and a 50 kHz, 500 W prototype converter was experimented for verification of the converter characteristics. It was verified that high voltage peak pulses and ringing pulse on secondary rectified waveforms of the converter are decreased effectively.

This paper presents novel ZVZCS PWM DC-DC converters. The proposed soft-switching technique achieves ZVS and ZCS simultaneously at both turn-on and turn-off of the main switch and diode by using only one auxiliary switch. Also, the proposed soft-switching technique is suitable for not only minority but also majority carrier semiconductor devices. The auxiliary circuit of the proposed topology is placed out the main power path and therefore, there are no voltage/current stresses on the main switch and diode. The operating principle of the proposed circuit is illustrated by a detailed study with the boost converter as an example. The validity of the proposed converter is verified by theoretical analysis, simulation and experiment results.

In this paper an Improved Zero Voltage Zero Current Pulse Width Modulation Forward converter which employs a simple resonance snubber circuit is introduced. A simple snubber circuit consists of a capacitor, an inductor and two diodes. In proposed converter, switch Q1 operates at ZCS turn-on, and ZVS turn-off conditions and all-passive semiconductor devices operate at ZVZCS turn-on and turn-off state. The proposed converter is analyzed and various operating modes of the ZVZCS-PWM forward converter are discussed. Analysis and design considerations are presented and the prototype experimental results of a 100w (40 V/2.5A) proposed converter operating at 30 KHz switching frequency confirm the validity of theoretical analysis.

A ZVZCS(Zero-Voltage and Zero-Current-Switching) Three Level DC/DC Converter is presented to secondary auxiliary circuit. The converter presented in this paper used a phase shift control with a flying capacitor in the primary side to achieve ZVS for the outer switch. A secondary auxiliary circuit, which consists of one small capacitor and two small diode, is added in the secondary to provides ZVZCS conditions to primary switches, and aids to clamp secondary rectifier voltage. The auxiliary circuit Includes neither lossy component nor addition active switch, which makes the proposed converter efficient and effective. The principle of operation, feature, and design considerations are illustrated and verified through the experiment with a 500W 50kHz prototype converter.

The conventional three-level high frequency phase-shifted dc/dc converter has a disadvantage that a circulating current flows through transformer and switching devices during the freewheeling interval.. Due to this circulating current and RMS current stress, conduction losses of transformer and switching devices increases. To alleviate these problems, we propose an improved three-level Zero Voltage and Zero Current Switching (ZVZCS) dc/dc converter using a tapped inductor, a snubber capacitor and two snubber diodes attached at the secondary side of transformer. The proposed ZVZCS converter is verified on a 7㎾, 30KHz experimental prototype.

This paper presents the ZVZCS(Zero Voltage and Zero-Current-Switching) Three-Level converter using the secondary coupled inductor and auxiliary capacitor. The converter with phase-shift control is proposed to reduce the circulating loss in primary and the voltage stress in secondary side. Using a coupled winding of the output inductor, two auxiliary capacitors are generated to reset the primary current at circulating interval.

본 논문에서는 하이브리드 자동차 및 연료전지 시스템등 고승압 응용에 적합한 새로운 ZVZCS CCM 부스트 컨버터를 제안한다. 제안하는 컨버터는 CCM에서도 ZVS 턴온이 가능하며 다이오드도 ZCS 턴오프 동작으로 역방향 회복에 의한 서지가 없다. 또한 모든 소자의 전압정격과 수동소자의 부피는 기존 ZVT 컨버터에 비해 매우 작다. 메인 스위치는 듀티 제한이 없고 승압비는 기존 부스트 컨버터의 약 2배이다. 제안하는 컨버터의 동작원리를 설명하였고 이론적 해석과 시뮬레이션 및 실험파형을 통해 타당성을 검증하였다.
