- Abstract
An inverter with passive and active regenerative snubbers is presented in this paper. A single phase full bridge inverter with passive regenerative snubber uses a diode and capacitor for each main switch to provide low dv/dt, low switching stresses and to achieve zero voltage switching (ZVS) turn-off. A snubber inductor is used to obtain low di/dt and zero current switching (ZCS) turn-on for the switches. Further, the energy recovery circuit which uses a resonant inductor and a diode to recover the snubber capacitor stored energy into the input side. In addition, a high frequency inverter (HFI) with active regenerative snubber reduces the voltage spike across the main switches of the transformer and at the same time recovers the snubber energy into the output side. The obtained simulation and experimental results are discussed.
