Abstract
Experimental results are presented for buck and flyback zero-voltage-switched (ZVS) quasi-resonant converters (QRCs) operating above 5 MHz. A design procedure for a buck ZVS QRC is proposed that minimizes voltage stress to the power MOSFET transistor while maintaining zero voltage switching for specified ranges of input voltage and load resistance. A quasi-resonant gate drive scheme is also proposed and implemented in a buck converter. The drive is simple and provides high switching speed. Power dissipation in the gate drive is substantially reduced due to the quasi-resonant operation. The ZVS QRC technique described is suitable for very-high-frequency operation due to its ability to reduce dynamic turn-on losses, Miller effect, dv/dt, and di//dt and can be applied in distributed onboard power supplies. >
