Sahin, Yakup; Ting, Naim Suleyman; Yesilyurt, Huseyin
A novel capacitor-voltage reduced bidirectional (CVRB) PWM DC-DC buck-boost converter is presented in this study. Compared to the conventional bidirectional buck-boost converter, the proposed converter has a lower voltage rating filter capacitor. Accordingly, the given converter has a lower cost and higher power density than the conventional buck-boost converter. Additionally, the proposed converter is more efficient due to the direct power transfer feature. Besides, the semiconductor switches have no extra voltage/current stress. The theoretical analysis of the converter is made, and its mathematical analysis is presented. The novel converter is experimentally operated in both the buck and boost modes. The experimental waveforms are shown for both operations. The proposed converter is operated in 100 W output power and 20 kHz switching frequency conditions. The efficiency of the proposed converter is 95.6% for the boost mode operation and 95.1% for the buck mode operation at the nominal output power.

This paper proposes a soft-switching (SS) active snubber cell for half-bridge (HB) DC–DC converters, which are utilized in hybrid vehicle battery charge applications. The proposed converter has an advantage over conventional HB DC–DC converters, which suffer from transformer leakage inductance issues. The new snubber cell performs SS operation using the energy stored in the leakage inductance. Thus, the leakage inductance, which creates troubles for HS DC–DC converters, is beneficial to the proposed converter. The proposed SS HB DC–DC converter is compared with the conventional HB DC–DC converter under 100 kHz and 110 W output power operating conditions. The efficiency of the proposed converter is 7.3% and 4.8% higher than the conventional HB converter at light and heavy loads, respectively. The proposed active snubber cell provides complete SS for the main and auxiliary semiconductor switches. The new snubber cell has a basic structure, low-cost, ease of application, and simple control features.

In this paper, soft switching isolated half-bridge converter with a new active snubber cell that uses switched capacitor for renewable energy applications is proposed. The proposed snubber cell does not consist any magnetic element so that its structure is quite simple. Furthermore, the auxiliary switches in the proposed active snubber cell are exposed to only half of the input voltage. There is no additional voltage and current stress on any semiconductor devices. All semiconductor power devices in the proposed converter are operated by soft switching. The proposed converter is analyzed thoroughly, and the theoretical analyzes are affirmed by an implementation having 300-VDC input, 20-VDC output, 75-W output power, and 150-kHz switching frequency. The overall hard switching efficiency of the converter is increased from 86.4% to 92.9% by aid of the proposed soft switching snubber cell.

This paper introduces a novel modular active snubber cell for isolated half-bridge converters with ease of control. The novel snubber cell can achieved soft switching for all semiconductors at the proposed converter. The switches in the converter are derived simultaneously by the normal pulse-width modulation signals. The introduced snubber cell has a quite simple structure and ease of control. In this converter, the main switches turn on with zero current switching and turn off with zero voltage switching. Besides, there is no extra voltage stresses on the power elements. The proposed half-bridge DC–DC converter is analyzed in detail and its theoretical analysis is verified with a prototype having 50 A–25 V output values at 80 kHz frequency.
