This paper proposed DC-DC converter for fuel cell that have high voltage and high current output characteristics. It is required step-up converter to use by general power supply, because the general rated voltage of fuel cell is low about 20$\sim$50V. The miniaturization of converter and DC link voltage can be controlled and high quality of output voltage uses mainly DC-DC converter. The boost converter and buck-boost converter do not get high boosting ratio. It is that proposed boost-flyback converter. Through simulation and an experiment, it could get high boosting ratio and efficiency more than 90%.

A new DC-DC power converter is researched for renewable energy and battery hybrid power supplies systems in this paper. At the charging mode, a renewable energy source provides energy to charge a battery via the proposed converter. The operating principle of the proposed converter is the same as the conventional DC-DC buck converter. At the discharging mode, the battery releases its energy to the DC bus via the proposed converter. The proposed converter is a non-isolated high step-up DC-DC converter. The coupled-inductor technique is used to achieve a high step-up voltage gain by adjusting the turns ratio. Moreover, the leakage-inductor energies of the primary and secondary windings can be recycled. Thus, the conversion efficiency can be improved. Therefore, only one power converter is utilized at the charging or discharging modes. Finally, a prototype circuit is implemented to verify the performance of the proposed converter.

In this study, in order to develop high power piezoelectric transformer, we compared the piezoelectric transformers dimension. The basic composition of piezoelectric ceramics is ternary $0.01Pb(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-0.08Pb(Mn_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-0.91Pb(Zr_{0.505}Ti_{0.495})O_3$. The voltage step up ratio of piezoelectric transformer showed the maximum value at the near of 81 kHz and increased according to the increase of load resistance.

태양전지의 출력특성은 일사량, 온도와 부하에 의해 크게 변동하기 때문에 가능한 한 많은 에너지를 얻기 위해서는 태양전지의 출력을 항상 최대로 제어할 필요가 있다. 또한 가정용 부하는 교류부하인 반면에 태양전지의 출력은 직류이므로 태양광 발전 시스템에서는 인버터가 필수적이며, 단위역률을 갖는 정현파 전류 및 전압을 계통에 공급해 주어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 계통연계형 태양광 발전시스템을 승압쵸퍼와 전압형 인버터로 구성하였다. 전력비교에 따른 시비율을 변화시켜 일사량과 온도변화에 관계없이 항상 최대출력점을 추적하도록 승압쵸퍼를 제어하였고, 전압형 인버터는 위상동기를 위해서 계통전압을 검출하여 계통전압과 인버터 출력을 동상 운전하므로 고역률과 저고조파 출력으로 부하와 계통에 전력이 공급되도록 제어하였다.

In order to match the voltages between high voltage battery stacks and low voltage super-capacitors with a high conversion efficiency in hybrid energy sources electric vehicles (HESEVs), a high ratio bidirectional DC-DC converter with a synchronous rectification H-Bridge is proposed in this paper. The principles of high ratio step-down and step-up operations are analyzed. In terms of the bidirectional characteristic of the H-Bridge, the bidirectional synchronous rectification (SR) operation is presented without any extra hardware. Then the SR power switches can achieve zero voltage switching (ZVS) turn-on and turn-off during dead time, and the power conversion efficiency is improved compared to that of the diode rectification (DR) operation, as well as the utilization of power switches. Experimental results show that the proposed converter can operate bidirectionally in the wide ratio range of 3~10, when the low voltage continuously varies between 15V and 50V. The maximum efficiencies are 94.1% in the Buck mode, and 93.6% in the Boost mode. In addition, the corresponding largest efficiency variations between SR and DR operations are 4.8% and 3.4%. This converter is suitable for use as a power interface between the battery stacks and super-capacitors in HESEVs.

This paper describes the performance improvement of power control system of magnetron (MGT) for microwave oven. The MGT is used extensively in household microwave oven and industrial microwave heating devices, and is operated by 3.0[kV] $\∼$5.0[kV] dc high voltage. The proposed power supply is consisted of a bridge rectifier, step-up converter(SUC) and its controller, half bridge inverter(HBI) and its controller, and full wave double voltage rectifier(DVR). In the proposed system, a good power factor can be obtained by the SUC' switching method that the inductor current waveforms follows that of the rectified voltage, and a line input power can be controlled to a range of 17.5[$\%$] by duty ratio (DR) adjustment of the HBI.

The modular line-connected photovoltaic PCS (power conditioning system) is proposed. The proposed system consists of a step-up DC-DC converter and a full-bridge inverter. A step-up DC-DC converter using a dual series-resonant rectifier circuit and a active-clamp circuit is proposed to achieve a high efficiency and a high input-output voltage ratio efficiently. An IncCond (incremental conductance) MPPT (maximum power point tracking) algorithm that improves MPPT characteristic is used. By control a inverter using a linearized output current controller, a unity power factor is achieved. All algorithms and controllers are implemented on a single-chip microcontroller and the superiority of the proposed algorithms and controllers is proved by experiments.

The solar cells should be operated at the maximum power point because its output characteristics are greatly fluctuated on the variation of insolation, temperature and load. The output power of solar cell is DC, therefore it is necessary to install an inverter among electric power converts. The inverter have to supply a sinusoidal current and voltage to the load and the interactive utility line. In the paper, the proposes a photovoltaic system designed with a step up chopper and single phase PWM voltage source inverter. Synchronous signal and control signal was processed by microprocessor for stable modulation. The step up chopper operates in continuous mode by adjusting the duty ratio so that the photovoltaic system tracks the maximum power point of solar cell without any influence on the variation of insolation and temperature because solar cell has typical dropping character. The single phase PWM voltage source inverter consists of complex type of electric power converter to compensate for the defect, that is, solar cell cannot be developed continuously by connecting with the source of electric power, from 10 to $20\%$. The single phase PWM voltage source inverter operates in situation that its output voltage is in same phase with the utility voltage. The inverter supplies an ac power with high factor and low level of harmonics to the load and the utility power system.

In this paper, the disk-type piezoelectric transformer for the high power was investigated with the variation of road resistance. The diameter and thickness of a disk-type piezoelectric transformer was 50mm and 4.5mm, respectively. The piezoelectric transformer was composed to PZT-PMN-PSN. The ratio of driving electrode and generating electrode ranges from 1.4:1 to 3:1. The poling direction of driving part and generating part are the same. A voltage step-up ratio increased with increasing the load resistance, $R_L$, so it reached 60 times under no road resistance. also, the maximum efficiency of 97% was obtained.
