With regard to the electromagnetic interference and power loss generated in the operation of the switches in switched reluctance motor drive ( SRD ) system, the paper proposed a converter with a new kind of capacitor divider parallel resonant DC link( CDPRDCL). The converter was to realize the zero-voltage-turn-off of the phase switches by connecting one buffer capacitor to each switch in conventional asymmetric inverters; and to realize the zero-voltage-turn-on of the phase switches, and the soft operation of the resonant switches, by adding a resonant link containing, as the main components, two inductors and one capacitor and through reasonably controlling the resonant switches in this link. The required condition for soft-switching was obtained by analyzing the working principle and operation process of the circuit. The soft-switching converter with such a resonant link has a larger effective interval and a lower power loss,thereby enhancing the efficiency and performances of SRD. Finally,the validity and efficiency of the converter are verified by MATLAB simulation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
