Mathematical analysis and stability prediction of soft switched isolated dc-dc converter is presented in this paper. Half bridge dc-dc converter is an attractive topology for low voltage applications due to its simplicity, lower cost, improved reliability and enhanced dynamic performance. Both power semiconductor switches of the proposed isolated converter operate asymmetrically under Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS) to achieve high efficiency and low voltage stress. Furthermore, the ringing resulted from the oscillation between the transformer leakage inductance and the junction capacitance of two switches is eliminated. Conversion efficiency is also improved by providing synchronous rectifier with very small output filter. The operating principle, state space analysis and control strategy of proposed converter is explained with small signal model. Experimental results are presented to explain the zero voltage switching capability and stability features of proposed converter.

An isolated high step-up DC-DC converter with a continuous input current is proposed. The proposed converter consists of two converter cells — a boost converter cell at the input stage for a low input current ripple and a DC-DC converter cell for high voltage gain. Zero-voltage-switching of power switches are achieved and the leakage inductance of the transformer alleviates the reverse-recovery problems of the output diodes. Therefore, the proposed converter achieves high efficiency. Detailed analysis and design of the proposed converter are carried out. A prototype of the proposed converter is developed, and its experimental results are presented for validation.

This paper is focused on the design of a control approach, based on the detection of events and changing between two different conduction modes, to reach high efficiency over the entire power range, especially at medium and low power levels. Although the proposed control strategy can be generalized for different topologies and specifications, in this paper, the strategy is validated in a SiC-based synchronous boost DC/DC converter rated for 400 V to 800 V and 10 kW. Evaluation of the power losses and current waveforms of the converter for different conduction modes and loads predicts suitable performance of quasi-square wave mode with zero voltage switching (QSW-ZVS) conduction mode for low and medium power and of continuous conduction Mode with hard switching (CCM-HS) for high power. Consequently, this paper proposes a control strategy, taking advantage of digital control, that allows automatic adjustment of the conduction mode to optimize the performance for different power ranges.

In this paper, a new interleaved nonisolated bidirectional zero voltage switching (ZVS) dc–dc converter by using one three-windings coupled inductor is proposed. The proposed topology can provide high step-up and high step-down conversion ratios for boost and buck operations, respectively. Moreover, because of interleaving, the proposed converter has low input current ripple at low voltage side in both buck and boost operations. The proposed converter uses lower number of switches to have bidirectional power flow in comparison with other interleaved bidirectional converters. All used switches in the proposed converter are turned on under ZVS. The advantages of the proposed converter in comparison with the conventional interleaved converters are included in the capability of bidirectional power flow, ZVS operation for all switches and high step-up and high step-down voltage gain for boost and buck operations. In this paper, the proposed converter is analyzed completely and all equations of components are extracted as well as the ZVS conditions of all switches. Moreover, a comprehensive comparison between the proposed converter and conventional topologies is presented. To verify the accuracy performance of the proposed converter, the experimental results are given.
