Abstract: An improved soft switched AC power distribution system for minimizing electromagnetic interference and AC losses in an AC power distribution system. The improved AC power distribution system comprises a flyback transformer comprising a primary winding and at least one intermediate secondary winding. A synchronization control circuit is connectable to the primary winding while at least one load transformer is connectable to the at least one intermediate secondary winding. The at least one load transformer connectable to the at least one intermediate secondary winding is connectable via an EMI shielded connection with controllable voltage and current rise times.

Abstract: Zero voltage switching isolated boost converters that provide high efficiency power conversion between input and output DC voltages. The boost converters includes a voltage amplifying stage including first and second switching transistors, an input coupled inductor, and an output transformer. The voltage amplifying stage amplifies the DC input voltage which is transformed by the output transformer to produce the DC output voltage. A zero voltage control input circuit is coupled to gates of the switching transistors and to the output of the voltage amplifying stage. The input circuit generates synchronization signals that synchronize rising edges of gate drive signals applied to the switching transistors with a resonant circuit. This is achieved by observing the state of gate and drain voltages of the switching transistors and detecting the moment when both drains are low, and both gates are not high.
