Abstract :
This paper presents a new ZCS turn-on and ZVS turn-off unity power factor PWM rectifier, which features soft switching with no auxiliary switches and reduced conduction losses. The ZVS and ZCS switching are achieved by using a simple commutation circuit with no auxiliary switches, and reduced conduction losses are achieved by employing a single converter, instead of a typical front-end diode rectifier followed by a boost rectifier. Furthermore, thanks to good features such as simple PWM control at constant frequency, low switch stress and low VAr rating of commutation circuits, it is suitable for high power applications. The principle of operation is explained and analyzed, and the design considerations and experimental results of the new converter are included
