A Switching Control Strategy for Single and Dual Inductor Current-Fed Push-Pull Converters ABSTRACT: A switching control strategy is proposed for single and dual inductor current-fed push-pull converters. The proposed switching control strategy can be used with both current-fed push-pull converters with an active voltage doubler rectifier, or active rectifier, in the secondary side of the isolation transformer. The proposed switching control strategy makes turn-on and turn-off processes of the primary side power switches zero-voltage-switching and zero-current-switching respectively. The soft-switching operation of the single and dual inductor push-pull converters, with both types of active rectifier, is explained. Simulation and experimental results are provided to validate soft switching operation of the current-fed push-pull converters with the proposed switching control strategy.

CONCLUSION: A switching control strategy is proposed for single and dual inductor CFPP converters with secondary side active rectifiers. The primary side power switches are turned-on and turned-off with ZVS and ZCS respectively with the help of synchronous operation of the secondary side power switches. The gain improvement of CFPP converters due to the proposed switching strategy is revealed under two modes of operation with similar switching characteristics. The performance dependency of the switching control strategy on the leakage inductance of the isolation transformer is critically analyzed. A detailed theoretical analysis is provided assuming ideal circuit conditions. Simulation and experimental results are provided to further validate the operation of the proposed switching control strategy.
