 Abstract   In order to achieve higher power density, higher efficiency and lower EMI and sub-harmonics ratings soft-transition techniques are applied in DC -AC converter design. This kind of soft-switching technique enables the implementation of low-noise PWM waveforms by means of auxiliary switches. A comparison study of two recently developed soft-switching inverter topologies is carried out to characterize the stress and size of the inverter components and the loss mechanisms. The application for high-speed linear motors (> 1.0m/sec) stands in the foreground. Limitations of switching frequency and duty cycle gives a predication of the maximum output current bandwidth and power output.
