  • Abstract
    In searching for a general "zero-current-Switching" technique for DC-DC converters, the concept of resonant switches is developed. As a combination of switching device and LC network, the resonant switch offers advantages of quasi-sinusoidal current waveforms, zero switching stresses, zero switching losses, self-commutation, and reduced EMI. Furthermore, application of the resonant switch concept to conventional converters leads to the discovery of a host of new converter circuits.
