Abstract :
In this paper, a new soft switching isolated PWM converter with active clamp circuit is proposed. The active clamp circuit in this converter provides soft switching conditions for both main and auxiliary switches. All switches are PWM controlled which simplifies the control implementation. One of the main advantages of this converter is the possibility of sharing the output power between the magnetic devices and operating at high power levels. The simulation results obtained from the proposed converter verifies the theoretical analysis.
