 Author(s)   Tiecheng Sun, Gaolin Wang, Lin Mei 
 Abstract   An improved zero-voltage and zero-current-switching (ZVZCS) full-bridge (FB) PWM bi-directional DC-DC converter employing modified voltage clamping circuit is proposed to alleviate voltage ringing and overshoot in secondary rectifier side due to resonance for conventional full-bridge ZVZCS DC-DC converter. The converter can achieve effective zero-voltage switching (ZVS) for leading-leg switches and zero-current switching (ZCS) for lagging-leg switches. It has advantages including without additional lossy components, lower switching losses, reduced conduction losses and bi-directional power flow. The operating principle and characteristics of the converter are analyzed. The proposed converter was verified by implementing an IGBT-based experimental circuit.
