Quasi-square-wave ZVS converters A quasi-square-wave ZVS buck Resonant transitions but transistor and diode conduction intervals are similar to PWM Tank capacitor is in parallel with all semiconductor devices, hence all semiconductors operate with ZVS Peak currents are increased, and are similar to DCM Peak voltages applied to semiconductors are same as PWM Magnetics are small, and are similar to DCM
Quasi-square-wave versions of other converters Flyback Boost Single transistor version of switch is restricted to 0.5 < µ < 1 So for boost, M > 2 For flyback, M > n Boost inductor and flyback transformer are very small, and are similar to DCM devices
Switch conversion ratio µ vs. Course website contains Excel spreadsheet (with function macros) that evaluates the above equations and can plot the above characteristics.
