ABSTRACT An improved Zero-Voltage-Switching (ZVS)PWM and off with zero voltage and zero current. Therefore, tum-on-loss
half-bridge converter with secondary switches is proposed and and turn-off-loss of the secondary switches are completely
analyzed. The proposed converter is controlled by PWM of main negligible. Voltage and current stress of the switches and other
switches using novel switching sequence with a constant switching
components are similar to those of the conventional PWM
frequency. The main switches operate with zero voltage switching,
and the secondary switches turn on and off with zero voltage and converter.

during Tdl and Td2. During Td3 and Td4, ZVS is achieved During Tdl and Td2, the switches are commutated due to
with the aid of the magnetizing current im. Assuming that the the sum of the output current -Io/N and the magnetizing current
commutation period of the switches and state 3, 7, 13, 14 are im, so that the following conditions of ZVS are derived.
sufficiently short to be negligible, variation of the magnetizing Tdl : -Io/N+Iml < 0, Td2 : Io/N+Im2 > 0 (15)
current im during 2Ts is shown as Fig.4. The magnetizing current Since Im2>0 from (13), the condition at Td2 is always satisfied.
