The resonant switch concept
A quite general idea:
1. PWM switch network is replaced by a resonant switch network
2. This leads to a quasi-resonant version of the original PWM converter
Example: realization of the switch cell in the buck converter

Tank inductor Lr in series with transistor: transistor switches at zero crossings of inductor current waveform
Tank capacitor Cr in parallel with diode D2 : diode switches at zero crossings of capacitor voltage waveform
Two-quadrant switch is required:
Half-wave: Q1 and D1 in series, transistor turns off at first zero crossing of current waveform
Full-wave: Q1 and D1 in parallel, transistor turns off at second zero crossing of current waveform
Performances of half-wave and full-wave cells differ significantly.

In steady state:
A generalization of the duty cycle d(t)
The switch conversion ratio µ is the ratio of the average terminal voltages of the switch network. It can be applied to non-PWM switch networks. For the CCM PWM case, µ = d.
If V/Vg = M(d) for a PWM CCM converter, then V/Vg = M(µ) for the same converter with a switch network having conversion ratio µ.
Generalized switch averaging, and µ, are defined and discussed in Section 10.3.
Fundamentals of Power Electronics 7 Chapter 20: Quasi-Resonant Converters
Averaged switch modeling of ZCS cells
It is assumed that the converter filter elements are large, such that their switching ripples are small. Hence, we can make the small ripple approximation as usual, for these elements:
In steady state, we can further approximate these quantities by their dc values:
Modeling objective: find the average values of the terminal waveforms

Replace converter elements by their high-frequency equivalents:
• Independent voltage source Vg: short circuit
• Filter capacitors: short circuits
• Filter inductors: open circuits
The resonant switch network remains.
If the converter contains a ZCS quasi-resonant switch, then the result of these operations is
