Abstract:This paper presents a comparison between two different snubbers of a boost converter for achieving soft-switching features. To obtain high current capability and high conversion efficiency, a boost converter is operated in a hard-switching mode, which will induce high component stresses, high switching losses of active switches, and serious electromagnetic interference (EMI). To overcome these disadvantages, two different snubbers using simple passive components that are incorporated in boost converters are co… Show more
