In this paper, the small-signal mathematical model of a zero-current-zero-voltage-transition (ZCZVT) soft-switching boost power converter is proposed. It shows that the ZCZVT boost converter exhibits better dynamic behavior than the conventional pulsewidth modulated boost converter. The input-to-output voltage conversion ratio of the ZCZVT soft-switching converters lies in a range which is related to the load. Based on the derived model, a classical controller and a modified integral variable structure controller are designed to achieve output voltage regulation and line voltage disturbance rejection. The experimental results regarding converters performances for two controllers are compared by experimental results.
