Analysis and design of a saturable reactor assisted soft-switching full-bridge DC-DC converter

The analysis and design of a saturable reactor-assisted soft-switching full-bridge DC-DC converter are presented. The converter has advantages such as low switching losses (with no substantial increase in conduction losses), wide load range, and constant switching frequency. In order to show how to utilize the analysis results in designing, a 350 W 500 kHz converter is chosen as an example. The results are verified experimentally on a prototype converter.<
