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.

본 논문은 250w 메탈 할라이드 램프용 전자식 안정기의 개발에 관한 연구로써 안정기의 입력 역율은 PFC IC를 이용하여 개선하였고, 벅 Type의 DC-DC 컨버터를 회로에 삽입하여 인버터회로에서 램프의 정격전압만을 공급할 수 있도록 함으로써 인버터 스위칭소자의 스트레스를 줄이게 되었다. 인버터의 형태는 풀 브릿지로 하였고 램프 점등을 구형 저주파에 고주파 성분을 첨가하는 방식으로 음향공명현상을 제거하였다. 또한 LC 회로를 이용한 간단 한 점화기 회로를 개발하였다. 벅 컨버터의 출력 전압을 조절하여 램프의 전압이 가변되는 원리를 이용하여 조광 제어를 할 수 있으며 계절별 및 시간대별로 점등시간과 조도조절이 가능토록 하였다. 벅 컨버터 출력 전압의 조절과 무부하 보호 및 과전류 보호 기능은 마이크로프로세서의 프로그램을 개발하여 수행하였다.

A novel zero-voltage-switching(ZVS) isolated PWM converter for single stage power factor correction (PFC) is presented to improve the performance of the previously presented ZVT converter[5]. A simple clamp circuit in the primary side provides zero-voltage-switching condition to all semiconductor devices. This ZVS is achieved with minimum device voltage and current stresses. Operation principle, control strategy and features of the proposed converter are presented and verified by the experimental results from a 1.5 ㎾, 100 KHz laboratory prototype

In this paper, the 170W LLC half bridge DC-DC converter is designed for the lighting management system. The power conversion circuit consists of PFC and isolated LLC resonant converter. The topology of LLC half bridge resonant converter provides ZVS characteristic. And the stresses of voltage and current is smaller than that of the general resonant converters. So we can expect the higher efficiency. The optimal conditions for high efficiency were investigated through by experiment.

This paper proposes a new single-stage, single-switch AC/DC converter based on the boost power factor correction (PFC) cell. The converter offers both high power factor and high efficiency. To reduce the dc voltage on the energy storage capacitor, the dc bus voltage feedback method was used. A 100W (5V/20A) prototype was built and tested to show the validity of the proposed converter.

In this paper, we studied the development of the electronic ballast for 250W MH (Metal-Halide) lamps. We were able to improve the input power factor by using a PFC IC. To provide the lamp with the rated voltage required, we used the buck-type dc-dc converter. The stress of the switching devices in the inverter could be reduced by this method. To eliminate the acoustic resonance phenomena of MH lamps, the voltage of the lamp added the high frequency sine-wave to the low frequency square-wave by using the full bridge typed inverter. We have developed a simple igniter using the L and C elements. We could control the dimness of the lamp by varying the output voltage of the buck converter. The buck converter output voltage could be controlled by using a microprocessor.

This paper describes the design and implementation of a unit module for a 10 kVA class 13.2 kV/220 V unidirectional solid-state transformer (SST) with silicon-carbide metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors. The proposed module consists of an active-front-end (AFE) converter to interface 1320 V AC voltage source to 2500 V DC link and an isolated resonant DC-DC converter for 500 V low-voltage DC output. The design approaches of the AFE and the isolated resonant DC-DC converters are addressed. The control structures of the converters are described as well. The experiments for the converters are performed, and results verify that the proposed unit module can be successfully adopted for the entire SST operation.

This study proposes a feedforward compensation control method to reduce 120 Hz output voltage ripple in a single-phase AC/DC rectifier system composed of PFC and LLC resonant converters. The proposed method compensates for the voltage ripple of the DC-link by using the AC input and DC output power difference, and then reduces the final output voltage ripple component of 120 Hz through feedforward compensation based on the linearized frequency gain curve of the LLC resonant converter. Through simulation and experimental results, the validity of the ripple reduction performance was verified by comparing the conventional PI controller and the proposed feedforward compensation method.

Critical conduction mode boost power factor correction converters operating at the boundary of continuous conduction mode and discontinuous conduction mode have been widely used for power applications lower than 300W. This paper proposes an enhanced variable on-time control method for the critical conduction mode boost PFC converter to improve the total harmonic distortion characteristic. The inductor current, which varies according to the input voltage, is analyzed in detail and the optimal on-time is obtained to minimize the total harmonic distortion with a digital controller using a TMS320F28335. The switch on-time varies according to the input voltage based on the computed optimal on-time. The performance of the proposed control method is verified by a 100W PFC converter. It is shown that the optimized on-time reduces the total harmonic distortion about 52% (from 10.48% to 5.5%) at 220V when compared to the variable on-time control method.

본 논문에서는 더 높은 에너지 효율을 요구하는 전자 기기들의 사용에 따른 고전력 밀도 AC/DC 어댑터의 구조를 제안한다. PFC (Power Factor Corrector) topology는 BCM (Boundary Conduction Mode)제어 방식을 적용한 Boost topology를 기본으로 하였으며, DC/DC topology는 주파수제어를 적용한 LLC 공진 컨버터를기본으로 하였다. 이는 반도체 소자 및 마그네틱 소자의 크기를 줄이는데 용이하다. 85W급 AC/DC adapter (18.5V/4.6A)를 설계하여 실험한 결과 $90V_{rms}$의 입력전압에서 90%의 효율과 $36W/in^3$의 전력밀도가 측정되었고 무부하시 전력 손실은 0.5W를 달성하였다.
