[0002] With the rapid development of new energy grid-connected power generation, electric vehicles, and aerospace, inverters are being used more and more widely, and the requirements for high frequency and miniaturization of inverters are also increasing rapidly. However, miniaturizing the inverter using high-frequency switching will increase the loss. The above problems seriously hinder the improvement of the power density of the inverter. Exploring new topologies, increasing the switching frequency, and using soft switching technology are the main solutions.
