Title
Forward-Flyback Mixed Zvs Dc-Dc Converter With Non-Dissipative Lc Snubber Circuit
Abstract
This paper presents a zero-voltage switching (ZVS) forward-flyback DC-DC converter, which is able to process and deliver power efficiently over very wide input voltage variation. The proposed ZVS forward flyback DC/DC converter is part of a Micro-inverter to perform input voltage regulation to achieving maximum power point tracking for Photo-voltaic panel. The converter operates at boundary between current continuous and discontinuous mode to achieve ZVS. Variable frequency with fixed off time is used for reducing core losses of the transformer, achieving high efficiency. In addition, non-dissipative LC snubber circuit is used to get both benefits: 1) the voltage spike is restrained effectively while the switch is turned off with high current in primary side; 2) the main switch still keeps ZVS feature. Finally, experiment results provided from a 200W prototype (30Vdc-50Vdc input, 230Vdc output) validate the feasibility and superior performance of the proposed converter. © 2013 IEEE.
