Abstract :
A novel 1 core type ARCP scheme soft-switching inverter without divided smoothing capacitor in the DC side is proposed in this paper. The proposed 1 core type ARCP method soft-switching inverter can achieve the zero voltage soft-switching transition in the main switch, and the zero current soft-switching transition in the additional auxiliary switch, in the same way as the conventional ARCP method soft-switching inverter. The operation characteristics and performances of proposed ARCP method soft-switching inverter is evaluated and discussed with experimental results.
