A Study on Soft Switching PWM Boost Converter using ZVT Technique

Recently DC-DC converters significantly increase the total losses as rising switching frequency. Traditional soft switching technique for reducing switching losses even increase voltage/current stress of switch. In this paper Resonant circuit for soft switching is connected in parallel with power stage and only operates just before turn-on of the main operates just before turn-on of the main switch, Therefore This doesn't affect the total circuit operation. ZNT-PWM converter designed with 170-260V input 4--V 5A output and 100kHz switching frequency is tested respectively with 500W. 1kW, 1.5kW, and 2kW loads.
