Abstract :
An improved ZVT PWM boost rectifier with high power factor and low conduction losses is proposed in this paper. Only one auxiliary switch is used in the active soft switching circuit and all semiconductors are under soft switching conditions. A prototype of boost converter rated at 1kW has been built to confirm the effective of the converter.
