  • Abstract
    Work on a new converter topology whose advantage is that the power switching occurs at both zero current and zero voltage, giving it major advantages over the present state of the art, is reported. The application of this topology to both high- and low-output voltage converters is described in detail. Design details and test results are given, together with a full analysis of the operation of the converters
