Abstract :
In the paper, a new auxiliary circuit that can be used in ZVT-PWM converters is proposed. The properties, operation, and design of the new auxiliary circuit are discussed in the paper will discuss Experimental results obtained from a prototype of a ZVT boost converter with the new auxiliary circuit are presented to confirm the feasibility of the circuit.
