Conclusions – Active Clamp Converters
Derived from Hard-Switched Converters by the addition of few
Resonant elements following the simple rule.
Circuit equations governing these sub-intervals are identical when
expressed in terms of pole current; throw voltage and freewheeling
resonant circuit voltage (I, V, and VC).
Steady state and Dynamic equivalent circuits are obtained from
this idealized analysis.
The resonant sub-interval introduces lossless damping in the
converter dynamics.
Advantages – Active Clamp Converter
High Efficiency - ZVS
Simple Dynamic Model
Wide Variety of Topologies
