Abstract

Based on classical zero voltage transition buck pwm converter, an ideal buck converter with pwm-controlled soft-switching circuit is proposed. The proposed auxiliary circuit allows the main switch to operate with zero-voltage switching. Besides, all of the semiconductor devices operate under soft-switching conditions. Thus, losses were reduced. It was analyzed in detail to demonstrate the operating principle of the novel circuit. Finally, simulation results are given analysis and the simulation results are provided to verify the performance of the proposed buck Converter.

Keywords:

Buck converter, resonance, soft-switching, zero voltage transition,
