Summary:In this paper, a new auxiliary circuit is introduced for applying to buck, buck-boost, zeta, forward, and flyback converters. This auxiliary circuit provides a zero-current switching condition for all switching elements. The proposed zero-current transition (ZCT) pulsewidth-modulated buck converter is briefly described. Also, a ZCT flyback converter is analyzed, and its different operating modes are presented. Design considerations are explained, and a design example along with the experimental results of the ZCT flyback converter is presented.
