This paper proposes a current-fed type high frequency inverter using a soft switching technology Zero-Voltage-Switching to reduce turn on and off loss at the switching. The analysis of the proposed circuit was described by using normalized parameter and operating characteristics have been evaluated as to switching frequency and parameters. The theoretical results are in good agreement with the experimental ones. In the future the proposed circuit is considered to be useful for induction heating applications.

본 논문에서는 일정한 주파수로 동작하는 영전압 스위칭 방식의 PWM 컨버터를 제안하였다. 제안된 컨버터에서 컨버터의 주스위치는 항상 영전압에서 스위칭을 하며, 보조 스위치는 항상 소프트 스위칭을 한다. 또한, 컨버터 스위치의 전압 및 전류 스트레스는 기존의 PWM 컨버터와 같이 적다. 제안된 컨버터는 배터리 컨버터로 적용하기 위하여 buck형 컨버터로 구현하였다. 컨버터는 스위칭 특성은 실험적으로 확인하였다.

In this paper, a high frequency flyback type zero voltage soft switching PWM DC-DC converter using IGBTs is proposed. Effective applications for this power converter can be found in auxiliary power supplies of rolling stock transportation and electric vehicles. This power converter is basically composed of active power switches and a flyback high frequency transformer. In addition to these, passive lossless snubbers with power regeneration loops for energy recovery, consisting of a three winding auxiliary high frequency transformer, auxiliary capacitors and diodes are introduced to achieve zero voltage soft switching from light to full load conditions. Furthermore, this power converter has some advantages such as low cost circuit configuration, simple control scheme and high efficiency. Its operating principle is described and to determine circuit parameters, some practical design considerations are discussed. The effectiveness of the proposed power converter is evaluated and compared with the hard switching PWM DC-DC converter from an experimental point of view and the comparative electromagnetic conduction and radiation noise characteristics of both DC-DC power converter circuits are also depicted.

In this paper, a soft switching DC-DC converter for AC module type photovoltaic (PV) module integrated converter is proposed. A push-pull converter is suitable for a low voltage PV AC module system because the step-up ratio of a high frequency transformer is high and the number of primary side switches is relatively small. However, the conventional push-pull converters do not have high efficiency because of high switching losses by hard switching and transformer losses (copper and iron losses) by high turns-ratio of the transformer. In the proposed converter, primary side switches are turned on at zero voltage switching (ZCS) condition and turned off at zero current switching (ZVS) condition through parallel resonance between secondary leakage inductance of the transformer and a resonant capacitor. Therefore the proposed push-pull converter decreases the switching loss using soft switching of the primary switches. Also, the turns-ratio of the transformer can be reduced by half using a voltage-doubler of secondary side. The theoretical analysis of the proposed converter is verified by simulation and experimental results.

In this paper, an interleaved soft switching boost converter for a Photovoltaic Power Conditioning System (PV-PCS) with high efficiency is proposed. In order to raise the efficiency of the proposed converter, a 2-phase interleaved boost converter integrated with soft switching cells is used. All of the switching devices in the proposed converter achieve zero current switching (ZCS) or zero voltage switching (ZVS). Thus, the proposed circuit has a high efficiency characteristic due to low switching losses. To analyze the power losses of the proposed converter, two experimental sets have been built. One consists of normal devices (MOSFETs, Fast Recovery (FR) diodes) and the other consists of advanced power devices (CoolMOSs, SiC-Schottky Barrier Diodes (SBDs)). To verify the validity of the proposed topology, theoretical analysis and experimental results are presented.

This paper proposes a zero-voltage-transition pulse-width modulation (PWM) DC-DC converter that uses a new active-snubber-cell. The converter main switch can be turned on and off with ZVS, while the snubber switch is turned on with ZCS and turned off with ZVS. Other semiconductor devices are operated under the soft-switching condition. Normal PWM control can be used, the proposed active-snubber-cell does not impose any additional voltage and current stresses. The active-snubber-cell is suitable for high-power applications due to its easy integration into interleaved converters. This paper discusses the operation of the converter, presents some design guidelines, and provides the results of an experiment with a 100 kHz and 1 kW prototype. A peak efficiency of 97.8% is recorded.
