| Abstract: | A new phase shift full bridge (PSFB) converter with series-connected two transformers is proposed. The proposed converter shows wide zero voltage switching (ZVS) ranges and no output inductor is needed since each transformer individually acts as an inductor or a transformer during different times of the switching cycle. The operational principle, large signal modeling, and design equations are presented. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed converter can achieve a significant improvement in the efficiency for a 100W (5 V, 20 A) telecommunication on-board power supply. |
