To achieve high efficiency in high power and high frequency applications, reduction of switching losses and noise is very important. In this paper, an improved zero voltage switching forward dc/dc converter is proposed. The proposed converter is constructed by using energy recovery snubbers in parallel with the main switches and output diodes of the conventional forward dc/dc converter. Due to the use of the energy recovery snubbers in the primary and secondary side, the proposed converter achieves zero-voltage-switching turn-off without switching losses for switching devices and output rectification diodes. The complete operating principles and experimental results will be presented.

본 논문에서는 Two transistor forward(TTF) DC-DC 컨버터의 회로방식에 대한 전력변환 효율특성을 빠르고 효과적인 분석 방법에 대해 보고한 것이다. TTF 컨버터의 회로 구성 소자 중에서 내부 기생저항만을 고려한 등가회로를 유도하고 이상적인 동작 파형을 이용하여 전류의 실효값과 전도손실을 유도하였다. 해석을 간단하게 하기위해서 정상상태 결과로부터 코어 손실은 무시하였으며, 다이오드의 손실과 전도손실 만을 고려하였다. 해석결과의 타당성을 검토하기 위해서 시험용 TTF 컨버터를 구성하여 검증하였다. 입력전압 390V, 출력전압 12V, 최대전력 480W의 조건에서 실험결과와 해석결과와 비교적 잘 일치한다는 것을 본 논문에서 확인 하였다.

A photovoltaic power conditioning system (PV PCS) that contains single-phase dc/ac inverters tends to draw an ac ripple current at twice the output frequency. Such a ripple current perturbs the operating points of solar cells continuously and it may reduce the efficiency of the current based maximum power point tracking technique (CMPPT). In this paper, the ripple current generation in a dc link and boost inductor is analyzed using the ac equivalent circuit of a dc/dc boost converter. A new feed-forward ripple current compensation method to incorporate a current control loop into a dc/dc converter for ripple reduction is proposed. The proposed feed-forward compensation method is verified by simulation and experimental results. These results show a 41.8 % reduction in the peak-to peak ac ripple. In addition, the dc/ac inverter control system uses an automatic voltage regulation (AVR) function to mitigate the ac ripple voltage effect in the dc link. A 3kW PV PCS prototype has been built and its experimental results are given to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

본 논문은 개선된 형태의 Forward-flyback 컨버터 회로를 제안하고, 회로 동작 및 정상 상태를 분석한다. 제안된 회로는 단일 스위치와 다중 출력 변압기를 사용하여 Forward-flyback 컨버터를 구성하며, 기존의 Forward-flyback 회로보다 적은 수의 다이오드를 사용하여 회로를 구동한다. 또한 Flyback 부분의 경우 Forward 부분 출력단의 LC필터를 사용할 수 있도록 구성하여 전압 출력 특성에서의 개선 역시 얻을 수 있다. 기생소자가 없는 경우에 대하여 회로의 동작 분석이 이루어 졌으며, 실험을 통해 이를 검증하였다.

In this paper, the design and implementation of a high power(300W) forward converter using a planar transformer is presented. The overall size and volume of the converter is decreased by replacing a planar transformer in stead of using a conventional winding transformer. Due to the decreased size and volume, power density of the applied forward converter is increased. Also, in this paper, the 300W ZVS forward converter with active clamp snubber circuit is compared to the 300W hard switching forward converter.

In this paper, we report the experimental results of the Forward-flyback DC-DC converter with current doubler and synchronous rectifier. The experimental converter, that has a output voltage 1.8V, output current 25A, maximum power of 45W, switching frequency of 290kHz and input voltage range of 36-75V, has been successfully implemented. As a result, in the entire voltage range the measured full load efficiency was above 82%, and the output voltage was regulated at 1.8V within ${\pm}$3% tolerance.

In this paper, SPICE program which is widely used in analysis of general circuit on electronic and electrical field has been applied to DC-DC converter. We have selected Forward type which is widely used us SMPS(Switched Mode Power Supply) of various electronic equipments, and have confirmed the waveforms of circuit operation, transfer of energy and resetting in transformer. And the procedure which the output voltage of converter, including the control circuit, has been stabilized from the transient state to the steady state by controlling the duty ratio of switch is presented. We have compared SPICE simulation with experiment and have verified the validity of SPICE simulation.

This paper proposed dc-dc converter with continuous output current for battery charger. If we charge energy storage device by conventional boost converter, current flows into the discontinuous and as a result reduces the life-time of battery. The output voltage of dc-dc converter should be higher than voltage of across the battery, specially if charging by PV there is a fluctuation of voltage due change of insolation and temperature, therefore will boost and regulate this voltage. The proposal converter includes forward converter and the output voltage of the proposal converter looks like an input voltage and forward output voltage's add. This topology was tested on simulation and experimentation. Simulation and experimentation results indicated that the proposal topology is useful for battery charging because the output current of the converter flows continuously and perfectly.
