Abstract

In this paper, a half-bridge building block that can achieve soft switching across the complete operating range while operating under fixed frequency is proposed. In addition, dead-beat model predictive controls to control the same are also proposed. The proposed converter, referred to as zero-state modulated (ZSM) converter, uses a zero state, enabled by a small auxiliary switch, to achieve soft-switching. The approach allows lower switching loss, controlled dv/dt, small filter inductor, fixed frequency operation allowing interleaving to reduce filter capacitor. A single half-bridge building block can used to realize a ZVS DC-DC converter or multiple of these building blocks can be used to achieve soft switching 1-phase or 3-phase AC-DC converters.
