  • 현재 LLC 공진 컨버터는 넓은 주파수 범위에서 ZVS(zero voltage switching) 달성을 통하여 고효율 및 높은 전력 밀도를 얻을 수 있어 널리 사용되는 추세이다. 일반적인 LLC 공진 컨버터는 중부하에서 주파수 제어를 통해 이득을 조절할 수 있다. 하지만 경부하에서는 주파수 작동 범위에 제한으로 이득을 조절하지 못하는 문제점이 있다. 이에 본 논문은 Single-Stage LLC 공진 컨버터를 통해 경부하 조건에서 넓은 출력 범위를 가지는 것을 분석하였으며 시물레이션을 통해 확인하였다.

  • An average current mode control scheme that consistently offers good dynamic performance for LLC series resonant DC-to-DC converters irrespective of the changes in the operational conditions is presented in this paper. The proposed control scheme employs current feedback from the resonant tank circuit through an integrator-type compensation amplifier to improve the dynamic performance and enhance the noise immunity and reliability of the feedback controller. Design guidelines are provided for both current feedback and voltage feedback compensation. The performance of the new control scheme is demonstrated through an experimental 150 W converter operating with 340 V to 390 V input voltage to provide a 24 V output voltage.

  • Power losses of a 1-stage DC-DC converter and 2-stage DC-DC converter are compared in this paper. A phase-shift full-bridge DC-DC converter is considered as 1-stage topology. This topology has disadvantages in the stress of rectifier diodes because of the resonance between the leakage inductor of the transformer and the junction capacitor of the rectifier diode. 2-stage topology is composed of an LLC resonant full-bridge DC-DC converter and buck converter. The LLC resonant full-bridge DC-DC converter does not need an RC snubber circuit of the rectifier diode. However, there is the drawback that the switching loss of the buck converter is large due to the hard switching operation. To reduce the switching loss of the buck converter, SiC MOSFET is used. This paper analyzes and compares power losses of two topologies considering temperature condition. The validity of the power loss analysis and calculation is verified by a PSIM simulation model.

  • The method for the current equalization of the rectifier diodes in LLC resonant converter is proposed. The method decreases the current difference between the rectifier diodes using the auxiliary winding of the transformer and asymmetrical pulse width modulation (APWM). The analytical reason of the current unbalance is investigated and the operation principle of the proposed method and APWM control loop are explained. The performance of the proposed method was verified on a 480-W, 400-V/24-V dc/dc converter.

  • This paper deals with LLC resonant converter for communication power supply. Generally, the load range of communication power is very wide. However, voltage conversion ratio of LLC converter is highly dependent of load condition. So, it is not easy to design of robust power supply along with the wide load condition. Especially, it is not possible to meet the required low voltage conversion ratio for low output voltage with high input voltage under the light load condition. To solve this problem, in this paper, a new duty control interlinked with operational frequency has been proposed. To prove the usefulness of the proposed control method, the simulation and experiments were carried out. The simulation and experimental results show the usefulness of the proposed control method.

  • In case of the power conversion converter for driving the Lighting control system, the input voltage widens from $90V_{rms}$ to $264V_{rms}$. Among various methods, LLC half-bridge converter has wide input regulation range and limited switching frequency control range and ZVS is possible for even non-loaded case. Also, the converter can be applied for Universal Lighting control system. In this paper, the transformer design is studied. The efficiency measured is up to 90%.
