    Abstract
    The growth of high voltage dc-dc switching power supplies in various applications such as medical, industrial and laboratory research is undeniable. Design of these power supplies, respect to their expectation have some restrictions. Among the main characteristics, appropriate output voltage regulation, high efficiency, fast dynamic response and low EMI problems, are expected. Transformers constraints as one of the key components of high voltage dc-dc switching power supplies, plays essential role in the selection of converter topology and its control algorithm. In this thesis, first, with regard to issues of high frequency and high voltage transformers, provides a good approximation model...

    Abstract
    Clamp mode resistor capacitor diode (CMRCD) snubbers have a simple and easy implementing structure. They have been widely adopted in the pulsed power supplies to provide a safe operating condition for the series insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs). The main problem of the CMRCD snubbers is their poor performance in the voltage balancing of the series IGBTs. They are essentially overvoltage protectors and clamp the voltage of the IGBTs in a probable potentially dangerous condition. This issue diminishes the expected lifetime of the series IGBTs, where a number of them face a higher level of the voltage than that of the others. The unbalanced voltage of the series IGBTs will result in a...
