This paper proposes a novel ZVZCS-PWM Boost Converter, It enables the main switch to be turned on and off with both zero voltage and zero current and the auxiliary switch to be turned on and off with ZCS, the rectify diode to be turned on and off with ZVS Moreover, This converter is suitable for not only minority carrier device but also majority carrier device, The auxiliary resonant circuit of the proposed boost converter is placed out the main power path, therefore, there are no voltage/current stresses on the main switch and diode, The operation of the proposed boost converter is explained and analyzed theoretical and experimentally, from a prototype operating at 100kHz, with an input voltage rated at 50V
