This paper proposes a new class of converters based on the inductive input converters for the design of a power electronic interface for fuel cell (FC) applications. After studying the half-bridge structure, two soft-switching dc-dc converters are analyzed: one operating in zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) mode and the other in zero-current-switching (ZCS) mode. The ZVS converter can overcome the drawbacks...
