Soft-switching DC/DC converter having relatively better effectiveness
First Claim
1. A soft-switching DC/DC converter, comprising:
- a converter circuit comprising a main switch having a first, a second and a control terminals for converting an input DC voltage to an output DC voltage;
a resonant circuit electrically connected to said converter circuit; and
an energy transferring circuit comprising an auxiliary switch having a first, a second and a control terminals and magnetically coupled to said resonant circuit, wherein said main switch is turned on under a specific voltage across said first and said second terminals of said main switch and said auxiliary switch is turned off under a specific current flowing through said first and said second terminals of said auxiliary switch both controlled by said resonant circuit through a resonance effect so as to accomplish a soft-switching of said converter.

Abstract
The proposed soft-switching DC/DC converter includes a converter circuit including a main switch having a first, a second and a control terminals for converting an input DC voltage to an output DC voltage, a resonant circuit electrically connected to the converter circuit, and an energy transferring circuit including an auxiliary switch having a first, a second and a control terminals and magnetically coupled to the resonant circuit. In which, the main switch is turned on under a specific voltage across the first and the second terminals of the main switch and the auxiliary switch is turned off under a specific current flowing through the first and the second terminals of the auxiliary switch both controlled by the resonant circuit through a resonance effect so as to accomplish a soft-switching of the converter.
