A current fed full bridge converter with auxiliary resonant capacitor

抄録

This letter proposes a simpler and more efficient circuit scheme than the conventional current fed full bridge converter. In the proposed circuit, an auxiliary resonant capacitor is added to the conventional circuit to eliminate the adverse effects of leakage inductance of the transformer on the circuit operation, and at the same time, soft switching is achieved. As a result, switching losses were reduced and the efficiency was improved by approximately 4.7% compared to the conventional method, which was confirmed on LTspice. First, the basic structure of the proposed circuit is shown, followed by the principle of operation. Next, the advantages and disadvantages of the proposed method are presented. Finally, we compare the proposed method with the conventional method.
