Summary: This paper proposes a high-power-factor half-bridge doubler boost converter without commutation losses, which provides high output voltages, i.e., from 600 to 900 V. The voltages across the semiconductor devices are low and approximately equal to the output voltage, as doubled output voltages and reduced high-frequency ripple can be achieved. A detailed mathematical analysis concerning its operation is presented, and simulation and experimental results describe the converter performance.
