This paper presents the circuit modeling and control methods of PWM DC/DC converter with isolated dual outputs. The dual output converter consists of a transformer with a single secondary winding and two switches. The proposed control algorithm is that required inductor current according to the loads is feed-forwarded to the PI current controller. The proposed control method has better response characteristics than conventional PI control method at load change.

The desin and implementation of a CMOS analog integrated circuit that provides dual-mode modulations, PWM for active clamp reset converter and PFM for LLC resonant converter, is described. The proposed controller is capable of implementing programmable soft start and current-mode control with compensating ramp for PWM and frequency shifting soft start for PFM. Also it provides delay time for both modes. PWM mode is implemented by active clamp reset converter and PFM mode is implemented by LLC resonant convereter, respectively. The chip is fabricated using the 0.6um high voltage CMOS process.

A new phase-shifted parallel-input/series-output dual converter for high-power step-up applications has been proposed. It features a high efficiency due to the low switch turn-off voltage, low device stresses, low ripple contents, and a fast control-to-output dynamics compared to its PWM counterpart. To confirm the validity of the proposed converter, experimental results from an 800W, 350Vdc prototype are presented.

Multi-level Dual Active Bridge (ML-DAB) 컨버터는 높은 스위칭 패턴 자유도를 가져 인덕터 전류의 첨두치와 RMS를 효과적으로 감소시킬 수 있다. 본 논문에서 3-레벨 NPC DAB 컨버터의 동작원리를 분석하고, 비대칭적인 스위칭 패턴을 적용시켜 인덕터 전류의 첨두치를 수학적으로 분석하여 컨버터의 전력변환 효율을 높일 수 있는 동작점 설계 방법을 제안한다. 여러 동작점에 따른 전류 RMS 값을 비교하여 제안하는 동작점 설계 방법의 타당성을 검증하고자한다.

This paper presents a power supply system with pre-regulator using zero voltage switching (ZVS) interleaving two-transistor forward converter for high input voltage and high power application. A SMPS has a advantage that a good efficiency, small size and light weight but has a noise problem. A linear power supply system has a advantage that a good stability, low ripple and noise but has a disadvantage that a big size, low efficiency and heat problem. To alleviate these problems, we propose an power supply system using dual ZVS interleaving two-transistor forward pre-regulator. The proposed converter is verified on a 1kW, 50kHz experimental prototype.

A digital dual-channel interleaved phase-shift full-bridge converter is investigated in this paper, and its topology and principle are analyzed. To realize current sharing and stabilize the output voltage, a controller with current sharing loop and closed voltage loop is employed. In addition, current sharing will increase the output current fluctuation and a new digital interleaved driving technology is proposed to reduce the output current ripple. To verify the analysis, simulation and experiments are carried out, which shows the effectiveness of the proposed control strategies.

본 논문에서는 고주파 변압기 대신 무선 전력 전송 시스템을 적용해 양방향 전력 전송을 가능케 해주는 loosely coupled dual-active-bridge 컨버터에서, 코일 간 전송 효율을 높이기 위한 코일 형상 설계에 관한 연구를 진행하였다. 유한 요소법을 통해 여러 형태의 페라이트 코어에 대해 해석했다. 페라이트 코어 형태가 I-자 일 때 가장 높은 quality factor의 코일을 얻을 수 있었다. 또한, I-core의 ferrite plate의 크기에 따라 무선 전력 전송의 효율을 결정하는 코일의 coupling coefficient와 코일의 quality factor가 변하고 trade-off 관계가 있음을 확인하였다. 3cm의 air-gap에 대해 최대 효율을 가지는 코일 형상을 설계하여 시뮬레이션을 통해 97.8%의 코일간 전송효율을 얻었다.

This paper describes a single pulse-width modulation control strategy using the Single Pulse-Width Modulation (SPWM) method with a soft-switching technique for a wide range of output voltages from a bidirectional Dual-Active Bridge (DAB) converter. This method selects two typical inductor current waveforms for soft-switching, and proposes a rule that makes it possible to achieve soft-switching without any compensation algorithm from the waveforms. In addition, both the step-up and step-down conditions are analyzed. This paper verifies that the leakage inductance is independent from the rule, which makes it easier to apply in DAB converters. An integrated algorithm, which includes step-up and step-down techniques, is proposed. The results of experiments conducted on a 50-kW prototype are presented. The system efficiency is experimentally verified to be from 85.6% to 97.5% over the entire range.

This paper proposed a PFM(pulse-frequency modulator) boost converter which has dual pulse-width. The PFM boost converter is composed of BGR(band gap voltage reference generating circuit), voltage reference generating circuit, soft-start circuit, error amplifier, high-speed comparator, inductor current sensing circuit and pulse-width generator. Converter has different inductor peak current so it has wider load current range and smaller output voltage ripple. Proposed PFM boost converter generates 18V output voltage with input voltage of 3.7V and it has load current range of 0.1~300mA. Simulation results show 0.43% output voltage ripple at ligh load mode and 0.79% output voltage ripple at heavy load mode. Converter has efficiency 85% at light lode mode and it has maximum 86.4% at 20mA load current.
