Abstract :
A new step-down converter exhibiting low voltage stress across semiconductor devices, low inductor current stress and high efficiency is presented. Operation in continuous conduction mode (CCM) is analyzed in detail and main design equations are provided. The theoretical considerations were confirmed both by simulation and by experimental results.
