Fast recovery diodes (FRDs) were developed using the $p^{{+}{+}}/n^-/n^{{+}{+}}$ epitaxial layers grown by low temperature epitaxy technology. We investigated the effect of electrostatic discharge (ESD) stresses on their electrical and switching properties using current-voltage (I-V) and reverse recovery time analyses. The FRDs presented a high breakdown voltage, >450 V, and a low reverse leakage current, < $10^{-9}$ A. From the temperature dependence of thermal activation energy, the reverse leakage current was dominated by thermal generation-recombination and diffusion, respectively, at low and high temperature regions. By virtue of the abrupt junction and the Pt drive-in for the controlling of carrier lifetime, the soft reverse recovery behavior could be obtained along with a well-controlled reverse recovery time of 21.12 ns. The FRDs exhibited excellent ESD robustness with negligible degradations in the I-V and the reverse recovery characteristics up to ${\pm}5.5$ kV of HBM and ${\pm}3.5$ kV of IEC61000-4-2 shocks. Likewise, transmission line pulse (TLP) analysis reveals that the FRDs can handle the maximum peak pulse current, $I_{pp,max}$, up to 30 A in the forward mode and down to - 24 A in the reverse mode. The robust ESD property can improve the long term reliability of various power applications such as automobile and switching mode power supply.

Telecom supplies need to conform to low Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) and high Power Factor (PF) as per IEC 61000-3-2 and IEEE 519-1992 standards. These high rating power supplies use a three phase utility in which low THD and high PF are realized via various passive and active wave shaping schemes. In this paper, a new design for three phase telecom power supplies is presented with circuit parameter values optimized for high performance in terms of a low THD, high PF, low ripple and high line and load regulation using a suitable combination of various strategies. The performance of the power supply is validated by extensive simulations.

This paper presents an IHQRR (Integrated High Quality Rectifier Regulator) BIFRED (Boost Integrated Flyback Rectifier Energy Storage DC-DC) converter fed BLDC (Brushless DC) motor drive. A reduced sensor topology is derived by utilizing a BIFRED converter to operate in a dual DCM (Discontinuous Conduction Mode) thus utilizing a voltage follower approach for the PFC (Power Factor Correction) and voltage control. A new approach for speed control is proposed using a single voltage sensor. The speed of the BLDC motor drive is controlled by varying the DC link voltage of the front end converter. Moreover, fundamental frequency switching of the VSI's (Voltage Source Inverter) switches is used for the electronic commutation of the BLDC motor which reduces the switching losses in the VSI. The proposed drive is designed for a wide range of speed control with an improved power quality at the AC mains which falls within the recommended limits imposed by international power quality standards such as IEC 61000-3-2.

Power electronic loads inject harmonic currents into the utility system. The large increase of power consumption will inevitably lead to deteriorating power quality due to the popularization of switch-mode power electronic equipment. In this paper, a periodic voltage is injected in the control circuit to vary duty cycle of the rectifier switch within a line cycle so that the fifth-order harmonic of the input current is reduced to meet the IEC 61000-3-2 requirement. Experimental results are presented to confirm the validity of this method.

최근에, 전원 공급 장치에 있어서 파워의 품질에 대한 요구가 높아지고 있다. IEC 61000-3-2 규격은 조명을 위한 AC/DC 전원 공급 장치에 대하여 역률(PF)과 전체 파형 왜곡률(THD)에 대한 규격을 만족하도록 요구하고 있다. 또 출력단의 전류 변화에 의해 발광체 광량이 바뀜에 따라 발생되는 플리커 현상에 대해 유럽권 선진국가는 ripple rate의 기준을 15~30%로 설정해 규제하고 있다. 따라서 국내에서도 기준을 마련하고 규제를 추진 중에 있다. 그래서 본 논문은 PFC 규격을 만족하고, 회로 1차, 2차 간 절연 기능을 가지기 위해 Flyback 컨버터를 적용하며, LED 전류의 저주파 리플을 저감하기 위해 Flyback, Coupled Inductor, LC 병렬 공진 필터, LLC 공진 필터, Cuk을 이용한 각각의 LED 구동회로를 PSIM을 통해 시뮬레이션 함으로써 각각의 방식들을 비교하였으며, 출력측 리플 저감을 위해 1차측에 Coupled Inductor와 2차측에 LC 공진을 적용한 Coupled LC 공진 회로를 제안하였으며, Coupled LC 공진 방식은 출력 커패시터가 78uF으로 작으며, 출력 리플은 전압 2.38V, 전류 0.05A로 기존의 방식보다 22%의 출력 리플 저감을 확인 하였다.

Recently, regulation for THD(Total Harmonic Distortion) such as IEC 61000-3-2, IEEE 519 is being reinforced about a product which directly connects to AC line in order to prevent distortion of common power source in electronic equipment and electrical machinery. In order to satisfy these regulations, conventional circuits were used two-stage structure attached power factor correction circuit at ahead of converter but this method complicate the circuit and then a number of element increases thereupon the cost of production rises. In this paper, we propose a high efficiency single-stage 300W PFC flyback converter, that improved power factor and efficiency than conventional two-stage power module.

Recently, many nation have released standard such as IEC 61000-3-2 and IEEE 59, which impose a limit on the harmonic current drawn by equipment connected to AC line in order to prevent the distortion of an AC Line. Therefore, Plasma Display Panel (PDP) which is highlightened in digital display device also has the Power Factor Correction (PFC) circuit to meet the harmonic requirements. In PDP power module, the conventional boost converter is usually used for the PFC circuit. However, it comes serious thermal problem on it's bridge diode due to heat of PDP, and therefore the system stability is not guaranteed. In this paper, the bridgeless boost converter, which is used for PFC circuit of the PDP power module, is designed and verified the possibility of the application in a practical product in a view of efficiency, component count, temperature and etc.
