Abstract :
This paper focuses on power loss analysis of non-isolated hard switching boost converter and quasi resonant ZVS (zero voltage switching) soft switching boost converter for various switching frequency in Power Conditioning System (PCS). Efficiency comparison and power losses of passive components are calculated for various switching frequency. The design and performance of the system is verified through simulation using PSPICE software.
