1. A method comprising:
configuring a power converter to operate as a boost converter, the power converter comprising a low side switch and a high side switch;
during a first dead time after turning off the low side switch and before turning on the high side switch, configuring the power converter such that a current of the power converter flows through a high speed diode, wherein the high speed diode is a silicon carbide (SiC) diode; and
after turning on the high side switch, configuring the power converter such that the current of the power converter flows through a low forward voltage drop diode, wherein the low forward voltage drop diode is a Schottky diode.
