Abstract :
An outline is presented of work done by the authors on a novel converter topology where the power switching occurs at both zero current and zero voltage, giving it some major advantage over the present state of the art. A description is given of the application of this topology to both high and low-output-voltage converters. Design details and test results are given, together with a full analysis of the operation of the converters
