Abstract

This paper introduces variable-frequency zero voltage switching (ZVS) modulation strategy for the four-switch buck+boost converter with one operating pattern for the inductor current, i.e., three-segment inductor current modulation control. The proposed modulation scheme guarantees a smooth transition from step-up to step-down or from step-down to step-up operating modes without abrupt duty cycle or switching frequency change. Triangular current mode (TCM) ZVS control could be derived from this three-segment inductor current modulation strategy. Moreover, the controller design can be simplified compared with other multi-mode control methods. Experimental results were given to validate the modulation control strategy based on a 300−600 V input, 400 V output, 3.3 kW prototype.
