Abstract

In this paper, the bi-directional soft switching DC-DC converter using ZCT(Zero Current Transition) method is proposed for using battery application system. This topology is composed of soft switching bi-directional buck/boost converter having the ZCT auxiliary circuit with two switches, two resonant capacitors, one resonant inductor. Therefore, the proposed topology can reduce switching loss. To verify the validity of the proposed topology, theoretical analysis and simulation results are presented.
