A Zero-Voltage-Transition Interleaved Boost Converter and Its Application to PFC

Abstract: An efficient power factor correction converter is presented. Two boost-topology switching cells are interleaved to minimize EMI while operating at lower switching frequency and soft switching to minimize losses. The result is a system with high conversion efficiency, able to operate in a pulse-width-modulation (PWM) way. Seven transition states of the ZVT converter in one switching period are described. In order to illustrate the operational principle key, implementation details, including simulations, are des… Show more

“…This group of converters is called soft switching PWM converters; an example of these converters is presented in [17]. In the soft switching PWM converters, the switches operate in resonant mode only during switching transitions and then, return to PWM operation for the rest of a switching period.…”

“…It has the merit of establishing of high output voltage, high power factor, improved efficiency and fewer harmonic as mentioned in [1], [2]. The limitations in the soft switching can be tackled by means of interleaved converters [3]. The proposed interleaved boost converter has less input ripple current, reduced I 2 R losses with lower rating of the switch and provides increased system reliability.…”

“…The normal zero voltage transition (ZVT) PWM converter [15] had been presented to implement the ZVS turn on process of the main switch during a very short ZVT time provided with a resonance. Recently, a zero voltage transition (ZVT) commutation cell was presented in [16] to provide ZVT for the main switch. It has many good features, then it was used to propose a ZVT Boost PWM converter featuring voltage conversion ratio with quadratic dependence on the duty cycle.…”
