An Improved Full-Bridge Zero-Voltage-Switched PWM Converter Using a Saturable Inductor

چکیده
AbspuctThe saturable inductor is employed in the fullbridge (FB) zero-voltage-switched (ZVS) pulsewidth-modulated (PWM) converter to improve its performance. The current and voltage stresses of the switches as well as parasitic oscillations are significantly reduced compared to those of the conventional FBZVS-PWM converter. The qualitative analysis is presented and is verified on a 500 KHz, 5 V/40 A converter.

A New ZVS-PWM Full-Bridge Converter
A full-bridge converter which employs a coupled inductor to achieve zero-voltage switching of the primary switches in the entire line and load range is described. Because the coupled inductor does not appear as a series inductance in the load current path, it does not cause a loss of duty cycle or severe voltage ringing across the output rectifier. The operation and performance of the proposed ...

A new zero-voltage and zero-current-switching (ZVZCS) full-bridge (FB) pulsewidth modulation (PWM) converter is proposed to improve the performance of the previously presented ZVZCS FB PWM converters. By adding a secondary active clamp and controlling the clamp switch moderately, ZVS (for leading-leg switches) and ZCS (for lagging-leg switches) are achieved without adding any lossy components o...
