Abstract

A high efficiency interleaved active clamp forward converter with self driven synchronous rectifiers for a modular power processor is presented. To simplify the gate drive circuits, N-P MOSFETs coupled active clamp method is used. An efficiency about 90% for the load range of 50-100% is achieved. The details of design for the power stage and current mode control circuit are provided, and also some experimental results are given.
