Soft Switching of Non-Isolated Buck-Type Converter with Common-Ground Switch

A non-isolated buck converter, together with resonance and zero voltage transition to achieve zero voltage switching (ZVS) and zero current switching (ZCS), is presented herein to upgrade the conversion efficiency. In this circuit, the main switch and the auxiliary switch are connected to the common ground so as to make the two switches easily driven. Furthermore, these two switches take time division multiplexing operation. In addition, the pulse width modulation (PWM) control technique is utilized so as to render the output inductor and capacitor easily designed. In this paper, the theoretical derivation is first introduced, and secondly, some experimental results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed topology.
