Design and simulation of an interleaved soft-switched CW-VM based boost converter for high power and high voltage applications

A voltage-multiplier based dc-dc converter for high power and high voltage applications is proposed, here. The proposed topology consists of two similar legs which have been combined together through an interleaved structure. Moreover, all four power switches of the converter operate under ZVS condition, owing to additional active clamp units. The (120–320)
