In this study, a new LLC resonant converter for high-voltage high-power applications is introduced. The introduced power converter is a two-phase interleaved full-bridge based that uses a transformer with secondary and tertiary windings to obtain higher output voltage. Zero voltage switching (ZVS) at MOSFETs turn on and zero current switching (ZCS) for all the output diodes at turn off are achieved for a wide range of input voltage (100 V-200 V) and output power (200 W-1500 W) variations. Simulation results show a 95% peak efficiency. © 2021 IEEE  

A new high step-up boost converter with an active clamp circuit to eliminate voltage spike caused by leakage inductor is introduced in this paper. The introduced power converter has a high voltage gain for variable input voltage from 48V to 80V. Since both main and auxiliary switches turn on with zero voltage switching (ZVS) and all the diodes turn off under zero current switching (ZCS) condition, switching losses and EMI noises are strongly degraded. Therefore, the converter's efficiency is improved significantly. Simulation results show a 96.4% peak efficiency and 95.4% average efficiency. The proposed topology is suitable for low-input-voltage and low-output power applications such as... 

In this paper, a new zero-voltage-switching, high power-factor, bridgeless rectifier is introduced. In this topology, an auxiliary circuit provides soft switching for all of the power semiconductor devices. Thus the switching losses are reduced and the highest efficiency can be achieved. The proposed converter has been analyzed and a design procedure has been introduced. The control circuit for the converter has also been developed. Based on the given approach, a 250 W, 400 Vdc prototype converters has been designed at 100 kHz for universal input voltage (90-264 Vrms) applications. A maximum efficiency of 94.6% and a power factor correction over 0.99 has been achieved. The simulation and... 

In this paper, a new zero-voltage-switching high power-factor (PF) rectifier with Line-Modulated Fixed-Off-Time current control is introduced, that off time is a function of the instantaneous line voltage. The auxiliary circuit provides soft switching for all semiconductor devices, without any extra current and voltage stress on the main switches. The proposed converter is bridgeless, and all semiconductor devices are soft switched. In addition, there is no extra stress on the switches. Thus, the conduction and switching losses are reduced and maximum efficiency is achieved. A 250W, with an input ac voltage of 90265 Vrms and an output voltage 400 Vdc, 100 kHz is designed and simulated to...
