Abstract :
This paper presents a novel prototype of ZCS-PWM forward DC-DC power converter designed for specific low-voltage high-current operation. A soft-switching forward power converter with a high frequency isolated link which can efficiently operate over wide load ranges, under conditions of ZCS and active voltage clamped switching, is established
