%0 Journal Article %T Simulation of Quasi Z-Source Converter Based Zero Voltage Electronic Loads %A M.S.Sivagamasundari %A P.Melba Mary %J International Journal of Innovative Technology and Exploring Engineering %D 2013 %I IJITEE %X Electronic loads are a family of power converters which can be used as a variable impedance load in different applications. This paper analyzes high efficiency zero-voltage electronic loads based on the quasi Z-source converter topology .The proposed topology operate as an ideal current source which enables the operation of the zero input voltage. It can achieve a high efficiency of more than 90% which reduces the system cost. . The validity of this proposed method has been studied by the PSPICE Simulation and prototype experiment. %K Electronic loads %K ideal current source %K Z-source converter %K Converter %U http://www.ijitee.org/attachments/File/v2i6/F0852052613.pdf
