Recently, DC-DC choppers must be increased switching frequency in order to achieve a small size, a light weight and a low noise. However, the switches of chopper are subjected to high switching power losses and switching stresses. As a result of these, the chopper system bring on a low power efficiency. To improved these, this paper is studied on a new DC-DC chopper of high efficiency operated with soft switching(that is, zero current switching and zero voltage switching, ZVCS), of semiconductor switches using in chopper. The soft switching operation is applied to a partial resonant method that the switches operate at zero current of inductor and zero voltage of capacitor in resonant circuit. And the partial resonant circuit makes use of a inductor using step-up and a snubber capacitor, the circuit topology of chopper is simple. Some simulative results on computer and experimental results confirm the validity of analytical results of the DC-DC chopper.
