This paper analyzes the effects of various operating voltages on the electrical and light output characteristics of 20mW(5mm-Ф), 1W and 5W high-power RGB LEDs. Operating voltages of three types are compared on a simple LED circuit: DC, full-wave rectified DC. and square-wave DC. As a result, it is found that the 1W and 5W high-power LEDs should be provided with appropriate heat sinks that hold down the increase of junction temperature. As for the operating efficiency the case of full-wave rectification gives the highest value.

Recently, one of the switching rectifiers, Power Factor Correction Circuit is often applied in rectification stage to get high efficient conversion of AC-DC SMPS However, it becomes important to select optimal semiconductor switch as well as to design optimal rectifier for achieving higher power conversion. We performed experiments with MOSFET, SiC and GaN FET that are widely used in 600 W Interleaved CRM PFC and include the data in this report. The results are presented for discrete semiconductor and integrated implementations of interleaved CRM PFC.

In this paper, we present an analytical method that provides fast and efficient evaluation of the power losses and the conversion efficiency for phase-shift controlled full-bridge converter. In the proposed method, the conduction losses are evaluated by calculating the effective values of the ideal current waveform first and incorporating them into an exact equivalent circuit model of the phase-shift controlled full-bridge converter that includes all the parasitic resistances of the circuit components. While the conduction losses are accurately accounted for the synchronous rectification, the core losses are assumed to be negligible in order to simplify the analysis. The validity and accuracy of the proposed method are verified with experiments on a prototype phase-shift controlled full-bridge converter. An excellent correlation between the experiments and theories are obtained for the input voltages of 400V, output voltage 12V and maximum power 720W.

The high efficiency full-bridge LLC resonant converter using a contact-less transformer is proposed for the photovoltaic power generation system. For the series resonance with a series capacitor, the LLC resonant converter utilizes the leakage inductance and magnetizing inductance of a contact-less transformer. Unlike the conventional series resonant converter operated to the continuous resonant current at above resonance frequency, the proposed converter operates to the discontinuous resonant current at the narrow frequency control range below resonance frequency. Due to the discontinuous mode resonant current, the proposed converter can be achieved the zero voltage switching (ZVS) in the primary switches and the zero current switching (ZCS) in the secondary rectification diodes without any auxiliary circuit. In this paper, the experimental results of the proposed full-bridge LLC resonant converter using a contact-less transfonner are verified on the simulation based on the theoretical analysis and the 150W experimental prototype.

Wave power generation systems operated in the ocean, has been developed as large power and grid power connection systems in general. However, small wave power generation systems offer operational efficiency for the lighted (navigation aids) buoy. They simply adopts a full-wave rectification for charging battery (direct connection method). In this paper, a wave power controller based on a booster converter is developed by considering a characteristic of the wells turbine. Both direct connection and booster converter power controller is designed and tested to compare the characteristics. Experiments demonstrate that the output of the proposed controller has improved the characteristic of output power, when generator output voltage is low.

To achieve high efficiency in high power and high frequency applications, reduction of switching losses and noise is very important. In this paper, an improved zero voltage switching forward dc/dc converter is proposed. The proposed converter is constructed by using energy recovery snubbers in parallel with the main switches and output diodes of the conventional forward dc/dc converter. Due to the use of the energy recovery snubbers in the primary and secondary side, the proposed converter achieves zero-voltage-switching turn-off without switching losses for switching devices and output rectification diodes. The complete operating principles and experimental results will be presented.
