A boost converter with zero voltage switching (ZVS) based on voltage clamping is presented herein. With one auxiliary circuit containing a few active and passive devices, the main and auxiliary switches conduct with zero voltage during the turn-on period, so as to reduce the switching loss and electromagnetic interference and hence to upgrade the efficiency and stability of the overall system. first of all, basic operating principles, together with mathematical derivation, are described, and secondly some simulated and experimental results, based on given specifications for one DC-DC converter with 24V input and 42V/100W output, are provided to verify the proposed topology.
