Abstract :
This paper describes the soft switching dc-dc converter with the coupling inductor for continuous current mode operation. The coupling inductor makes the commutation of the auxiliary inductor current at switching off to realize the zero current switching at switching on. The coupling inductor also makes it possible to suppress the overvoltage of the lossless snubber capacitor. The analysis of the characteristics of the coupling inductor is main theme.
