The conventional Bidirectional Full-bridge dc -dc converter is inefficient and may not be practical for the low power applications. This paper specifies an efficient DC-DC Converter that avoids power losses by using soft switching techniques like Zero Voltage Switching and Zero Current switching. The soft switching of Bidirectional Full-bridge DC-DC Converter operates as a buck converter when the power is positive and as a boost converter when the power flow is negative. Applications of soft switching Bidirectional Full-bridge DC-DC Converter are uninterrupted power supplies (UPS), distribution Systems, battery charger circuits, telecom power supplies, computer power systems. Detailed analysis of the converter is carried out in buck mode to obtain relations between the power circuit parameters. Based on the analysis, control schemes are described to operate the converter. The proposed full bridge DC-DC converter is simulated in Buck mode using MATLAB /SIMULINK.

This paper presents the functions of Series-Loaded Resonant Converter (SLRC). Series Loaded Resonant DC-DC converter is a type of soft-switching topology widely known for providing improved efficiency. Zero voltage switching (ZVS) buck converter is more preferable over hard switched buck converter for low power, high frequency DC-DC conversion applications. Zero Voltage switching techniques will be used to improve the efficiency of current and voltage at the series loaded half-bridge rectifier. The results will be described from PSIM simulation, Programming of MATLAB calculation and hardware testing.
