Abstract

An improved zero-voltage and zero-current-switching (ZVZCS) full bridge dc-dc converter is proposed based on phase shift control. With an auxiliary center tapped rectifier at the secondary side, an auxiliary voltage source is applied to reset the primary current of the transformer winding. Therefore, zero-voltage switching for the leading leg switches and zero-current switching for the lagging leg switches can be achieved, respectively, without any increase of current and voltage stresses. Since the primary current in the circulating interval for the phase shift full bridge converter is eliminated, the conduction loss in primary switches is reduced. A 1 kW prototype is made to verify the theoretical analysis.
