In comparison with several zero-voltage transition (ZVT) inverter topologies, a double-PWM converter is presented using a simple ZVT topology. The rectifier and inverter of this double-PWM share a set of commutation circuit which can provide soft-switching for the power devices and the diodes. The commutation circuit consists of 1 auxiliary device, 6 resonant inductors, and 12 diodes. Its topology is simpler than the conventional auxiliary resonant converter, leading to low loss and easy control. The control strategy and resonant working modes are analyzed. Experimental results show good performance of the system.
