and suppression technique
In case of S.C. charge mode, proposed DC-DC converter
Vg(S2) 10V/Div
can achieve ZVS/ZCS turn on and ZVS turn off commutation
by adding the loss less snubber capacitor Crx (x=1 or 2) in
parallel with S2 and S4 as shown in Fig.2. Crx are set to 4.7nF,
is5 10A/Div
the leakage inductance of the high frequency transformer T is
10uH.
However, parasitic oscillation in dead time periods
Vc 5V/Div appears to voltage waveforms in both S.C. charge/discharge
mode as shown in Fig. 12 and Fig.13. These oscillations are
2µs/Div caused by Crx and the leakage inductance, because no current
flows to S2 and S4 in these periods. They are able to be
suppressed by introducing synchronous rectification in S.C.
