This paper proposes a novel soft-switching dual-boost converter which is composed of two shunted elementary boost converters and an auxiliary inductor. This converter is able to turn on both the active power switches at zero voltages to reduce their switching losses and evidently raise the conversion efficiency. Since the two parallel-operated elementary boost converters are identical, operation analysis...
