일반적인 DC/DC 전력변환기의 스위칭 방식은 하드 스위칭 방식과 공진을 이용한 소프트 스위칭 방식으로 분류할 수 있으며, 하드 스위칭 방식은 스위치의 턴 온/오프시 스위칭 소자에 생기는 전력손실이 커서 효율 면에서 불리하며, 공진형 소프트 스위칭 방식은 별도의 리액터와 커패시터를 추가함으로서 시스템의 사이즈와 비용이 증가하는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위해 새로운 스위칭 방식의 소프트 스위칭 방식의 Full-bridge 전력변환기의 구조를 제안하였으며, 제안된 소프트 스위칭 방식은 앞단의 벅 컨버터의 다이오드 전류시 영전압이 되는 구간에서 Full-Bridge 컨버터의 스위치를 교변 함으로써 리액터와 커패시터의 추가없이 소프트 스위칭을 이루어냄으로서 시스템의 효율과 신뢰성을 향상시킨다. 또한 제안된 절연형 소프트 Full-bridge DC/DC 컨버터의 타당성을 검증하기 위해 Psim을 이용한 시뮬레이션과 500[W]급 DC/DC 컨버터를 제작하여 DC/DC 컨버터의 효율이 우수함을 확인하였다.

A high-efficiency full-bridge DC-DC converter with a current-doubler rectifier and an asymmetric pulse-width modulation is proposed. Through the asymmetric pulse-width modulation, the proposed converter achieves zero-voltage switching of power switches without the circulating currents. The proposed converter reduces the output current ripple through the current-doubler rectifier. A control strategy is suggested for the proposed converter to charge battery banks. A constant current and constant voltage charging is performed. The proposed converter achieved a higher efficiency compared with the conventional full-bridge DC-DC converter with a phase-shift modulation. The performance of the proposed converter is evaluated by the experimental results for a 1.0 kW prototype circuit.

This paper proposes a new soft switching single stage AC/DC full bridge converter with unit power factor and isolated output. This circuit shows that it is possible to combine the boost converter which is for PFC(Power Factor Correction) and full bridge converter which is for DC/DC converter. A simple auxiliary circuit which includes neither lossy components nor active switches eliminates ringing of secondary side of the transformer. The characteristics of the proposed circuit are investigated and the validity is verified by the simulation results.

A hold-up time compensation circuit is proposed to get high efficiency of the front-end phase-shifted full bridge DC/DC converter. The proposed circuit can make the phase-shifted full bridge front-end DC/DC converter built with 0.5 duty ratio so that the conduction loss of the primary side and voltage stress across rectifier in the secondary side are reduced and the higher efficiency can be obtained. Furthermore, the requirement of an output filter significantly can diminish due to the perfect filtered waveform. A 12V/100A prototype has been made and experimental results are given to verify the theoretic analysis and detailed features.

This paper proposes a new phase-shift full-bridge DC-DC converter by applying energy recovery circuits to a conventional full-bridge DC-DC converter in plasma display panel applications. The converter can achieve soft-switching in main-switches by an extra auxiliary resonant network even with the wide operating condition of both output load and input voltage. The un-coupled design guidelines to the main bridge-leg component parameters for soft-switching operation contribute to conduction loss reduction in the transformer primary side leading to efficiency improvement. The auxiliary switches in the resonant network also operate in zero-current switching. This paper analyzes the operation modes of the proposed scheme and presents the key design guidelines through steady state analysis. Also, the paper verifies the validity of the circuits by hardware experiments with a 1kW DC/DC converter prototype.

본 논문은 새로운 단일 전력단 역률보상 풀 브리지 컨버터를 제안하였다. 제안된 컨버터는 역률보상을 위하여 앞단에 2개의 인덕터, 2개의 다이오드, 2개의 자성결합 변압기를 가진 2VS 풀브리지 DC/DC 컨버터로 구성되어 있다. 이러한 구성방법에 의해 전력은 전원에서 분리되고, 안정된 직류출력전압을 얻을 수 있다. 이 토폴로지에서 주소자의 전압스트레스는 영전압스위칭에 의해서 감소되며, 또한 제안된 컨버터는 능동 역률보정 스위치와 제어 및 게이팅 보드와 같은 보조회로가 필요치 않게되어 규격과 단가를 낮출 수 있을 뿐 아니라 효율을 증가시킬 수 있다.

In this paper, a new hybrid DC-DC converter is proposed for electric vehicle 3.3 kW on-board battery charger applications, which can be modulated in a phase-shift manner under a fixed frequency or frequency variation. By integrating a half-bridge (HB) LLC series resonant converter (SRC) into the conventional phase-shift full-bridge (PSFB) converter with a full-bridge rectifier, the proposed converter has many advantages such as a full soft-switching range without duty-cycle loss, zero-current-switching operation of the rectifier diodes, minimized circulating current, reduced filter inductor size, and better utilization of transformers than other hybrid dc-dc converters. The feasibility of the proposed converter has been verified by experimental results under an output voltage range of 250-420V dc at 3.3 kW.

This paper presents a simple high efficiency full-bridge DC-DC converter using a series resonant capacitor. The proposed converter achieves the zero voltage switching of the primary switches under a wide range of load conditions and reduces the high circulating current in the freewheeling mode using the leakage resonant inductance and the series resonant capacitor. Thus, the proposed converter overcomes the drawbacks of the conventional full-bridge DC-DC converter and improves its overall system efficiency. Its structure is simplified by using the leakage inductance of the transformer as the resonant inductance and omitting the DC output filter inductance. Also it can operate over a wide range of input voltages. In this paper, the operational principle, analysis and design example are described in detail. Finally, the experimental results from a 650W (24V/27A) prototype are demonstrated to confirm the operation, validity and features of the proposed converter.
