Soft Switching Single Stage AC-DC Full Bridge Boost Converter

소프트 스위칭 Single Stage AC-DC Full Bridge Boost 컨버터

A new soft switching single stage AC-DC full bridge boost converter with unit input power factor and isolated output is presented in this paper. Due to the use of a non-dissipative snubber on the primary side, a single stage high-power factor isolated full bridge boost converter has a significant reduction of switching losses in the main switching devices. The non-dissipative snubber adopted in this study consists of a snubber capacitor Cr, a snubber inductor Lr, a fast recovery snubber diode Dr, and a commutation diode Dr, and a commutation diode Dp. This paper presents the complete operating principles, theoretical analysis and experimental results.
