N Interleaved Boost Converter with a Novel ZVT Cell Using a Single Resonant Inductor for High Power Applications

In this paper, the interleaved boost converter (IBC) with ZVT cell using single resonant inductor in continuous conduction mode (CCM) is proposed. The IBC with the proposed ZVT cell has the advantages such as a simple circuit, reduced size and low cost by using single resonant. It is more suitable for high power applications. The proposed ZVT cell circuit and principles for the IBC are explained in detail. The validity of the IBC with proposed ZVT cell is verified through the simulation results
