Zusammenfassung:	A power converter including a main circuit and a sub-circuit. The main circuit serves as a step-up/down chopper circuit including a series-connected assembly of main switches, an inductor coupled to a joint of the main switches, and a capacitor connected in parallel to the series-connected assembly. The sub-circuit is designed to establish the soft-switching and includes a snubber capacitor, a first sub-switch coupled to the joint of the series-connected assembly and a negative terminal of the snubber capacitor, a second sub-switch coupled to the joint and a positive terminal of the snubber capacitor, a third sub-switch coupled to the positive terminal of the snubber capacitor and a high-potential terminal of the main circuit, and a fourth sub-switch coupled to the negative terminal of the snubber capacitor and a low-potential terminal of the main circuit.
