Abstract :
This paper presents a soft single-switched forward with low current and voltage stresses. This converter operates with a nondissipative snubber in ZCS mode at turn on and ZVS mode at turning. The output voltage is controlled using the PWM technique. Operating principles and simulation results are presented. A detailed theoretical study and experimental results are also shown
