This paper presents a novel single-stage high frequency resonant inverter link type DC-DC converter using zero voltage switching with high input power factor. The proposed high frequency resonant converter integrates half-bridge boost rectifier as power factor corrector (PFC) and half-bridge resonant converter into a single stage. The input stage of the half-bridge boost rectifier is working in discontinuous conduction mode(DCM) with constant duty cycle and variable switching frequency. So that boost converter make the line current follow naturally the sinusoidal line voltage waveform. Experimental results have demonstrated the feasibility of the proposed DC-DC converter. This proposed converter will be able to be practically used as a power supply in various fields as induction heating applications, DC-DC converter etc.

The multi-resonant converter minimizes a parasitic oscillation by using the resonant tank circuit absorbed parasitic reactance existing in a converter circuit. So it is possible that the converter operated at a high frequency has a high efficiency because the losses are reduced. However, the resonant voltage stress across a switch is four or five times a input voltage. This high voltage stress increases the conduction loss. In this paper, we proposed the AT flyback multi-resonant converter. The proposed converter can reduce the voltage stress to two or three times by using two series input capacitors. The operational principle of the proposed converter was verified through the experimental converter.

A wide-voltage-conversion range bidirectional DC-DC converter is proposed in this paper. The topology is comprised of one typical LC energy storage component and a special common grounded asymmetric H-bridge with four active power switches/anti-parallel diodes. The narrow output PWM voltage is generated from the voltage difference between two normal (wider) output PWM voltages from the asymmetric H-bridge with duty cycles close to 0.5. The equivalent switching frequency of the output PWM voltage is double the actual switching frequency, and a wide step-down/step-up ratio range is achieved. A 300W prototype has been constructed to validate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed bidirectional converter between the variable low voltage side (24V~48V) and the constant high voltage side (200V). The slave active power switches allow ZVS turn-on and turn-off without requiring any extra hardware. The maximum conversion efficiency is 94.7% in the step-down mode and 93.5% in the step-up mode. Therefore, the proposed bidirectional topology with a common ground is suitable for energy storage systems such as renewable power generation systems and electric vehicles with a hybrid energy source.

본 논문은 이중 펄스 폭을 지닌 PFM(Pulse-Frequency Modulator) 부스트 변환기를 제안한다. 부스트 변환기의 구동 회로 구조는 밴드 갭 기준 전압 발생 회로와 이를 이용해 여러 가지의 기준 전압을 생성하는 기준 전압 발생 회로, 소프트 시동 회로, 에러 증폭기, 고속 전압 비교기, 인덕터 전류 센싱 회로, 펄스 폭 발생 회로로 구성되어있다. 변환기는 부하 전류 상태에 따라 서로 다른 최대 인덕터 전류 값을 갖도록 구성해 부하 범위를 넓히고, 출력 전압 리플을 감소하도록 했다. 제안된 PFM 부스트 변환기는 입력 전압으로 3.7V를 받고, 18V의 출력 전압을 생성한다. 구동 가능한 부하 전류는 0.1~300mA의 범위를 가진다. 모의실험 결과 저 부하 전류 동작 구간에서 0.43%, 고 부하 전류 동작 구간에서는 0.79%의 출력 전압 리플을 보였다. 변환기는 저 부하 구간에서 85%의 효율을 나타내며 20mA에서 86.4%로 최대의 효율을 나타냈다.

In this paper, control schemes are developed for a propulsion system(Converter/Inverter) in electrical train. A robust controller for PWM converter is proposed. The converter controller consists of a PI controller for DC output voltage and a current controller using error-space approach for maintaining the sinusoidal current waveform and unity power factor. This proposed method is based on characteristic ratio assignment(CRA) method which has the advantage to design the optimal gain to meet the referenced response and overshoot within the limit range. Inverter system is controlled by vector control and slip frequency control. At low speed region, vector control scheme is applied to control instantaneous torque and slip frequency control is performed under overmodulation region and one pulse mode. Because output voltage of converter contains harmonics ripple at twice input ac line frequency, control scheme is developed to reduce the pulsating torque current. The performance of propulsion system will be verified by simulation and prototype experimental results.

The current control of Continuous Conduction Mode(CCM) can be implemented by several methods: peak current control; average current control; and hysteresis control. Among these methods, the hysteresis current control is popularly applied in various converter applications because of its simplicity of implementation, fast current control response and inherent peak current limiting capability. However, a current controller with conventional hysteresis band which multiplies the current reference has the disadvantage that the modulation frequency varies in one cycle of the input voltage and, as a result, generates high switching frequency in the low input voltage section. Also it is complicated to design the input filter due to varying switching frequency. This paper proposed an optimum hysteresis-band current control method where the band is generated by using both multiplication method and sum method to maintain the modulation frequency to be nearly constant. This approach can solve the high switching frequency in the low input voltage section, and achieve easy design of input filter. The performance of the proposed converter is verified with the simulation and the experimental works.

This paper describes a design of multiple-mode single-output DC/DC converter which can be used in both up and down conversion. Proposed up/down converter does not produce a negative voltage which is generated in conventional buck-boost type converter. Three types of operation mode(up/down/bypass) are controlled by the input voltage sense and command signals of target output voltage. PFM(pulse frequency modulation) control is adopted and modified for fast tracking and for precise output voltage level with an aid of output voltage sense. Designed DC/DC converter has the performance of less than 5 % ripple and higher than 80 % efficiency. Chip area is 3.50 mm ${\times}$ 2.05 mm with standard 0.35 $\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS technology.
