Abstract :
A steady state study of a ZETA power converter for the continuous mode of operation is presented. This converter is derived from a forward converter by replacing the rectifier diode with a coupling capacitor. Some comparative results between both structures (ZETA and forward) are presented. Theoretical studies are confirmed by simulation. The experimental results obtained from a laboratory prototype are presented
