A class D digital audio amplifier with small size, low cost, and high quality is positively necessary in the multimedia era. Since the digital audio amplifier is based on the PWM signal processing, it is improper to analyze the principle of signal generation using linear system theories. In this paper, a class D digital audio amplifier based ADSM (Advanced Delta-Sigma Modulation) is considered. We first model the digital audio amplifier and then explain the operation principle using variable structure control algorithm. Moreover, the ripple signal generated by the hysteresis in the comparator has a significant effect on the system performance. Thus, we present a method to find the magnitude and the frequency of the ripple signal using describing function. Finally, simulations and experiments are provided to show the validity of the proposed methods.

Renewable energy resources such as wind and photovoltaic power generation systems demand a high step-up DC-DC converters to convert the low voltage to commercial grid voltage. However, the high step-up converter using a transformer has limitations of high voltage stresses of switches and diodes when the transformer winding ratio increases. Accordingly, conventional studies have been applied to series-connect multioutput converters such as forward-flyback and switched-capacitor flyback to reduce the transformer winding ratio. This paper proposes new single-ended converter topologies of an isolation type and a non-isolation type to improve power efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and output ripple. The first proposal is an isolation-type charge-pump switched-capacitor flyback converter that includes an extreme-ratio isolation switched-capacitor cell with a chargepump circuit. It reduces the transformer winding number and the output ripple, and further improves power efficiency without any cost increase. The next proposal is a non-isolation charge-pump switched-capacitor-flyback tapped-inductor boost converter, which adds a charge-pump-connected flyback circuit to the conventional switched-capacitor boost converter to improve the power efficiency and to reduce the efficiency degradation from the input variation. In this paper, the operation principle of the proposed scheme is presented with the experimental results of the 100 W DC-DC converter for verification.

The stator phase winding of a linear pulse motor, which is a new type of linear motor, is comprised of two phases and is structurally characterized by a stacking method in which the winding of one phase is laid on top of the winding of another phase. Such a structural characteristic induces a difference in the flux linkage resulting from the flux of each stator phase winding in the same condition. The difference in the induced flux linkage acts as a kind of thrust ripple component in terms of the generated thrust. Thus, in order to maintain consistent thrust force, a method is required to solve the problem caused by the structural singularity. Hence, in this study, we present a technique for reducing the thrust force ripple generated by the stacking of the stator phase windings of a linear pulse motor through the generation of a compensating current reference value of the current controller in order to keep the torque constant. The proposed compensating algorithm is validated by simulations and experimental results.

자기 기어는 기계식 기어와 동일하게 기어의 특성을 나타내면서 각 회전자가 접촉하지 않아 마찰에 의한 소음 및 발열, 유지보수문제에서 기계식 기어보다 유리하다. 또한 권선계자를 사용하는 회전자를 적용할 경우 기어의 출력조절은 물론, 기어비 및 위급상황에서 자체적인 구동차단까지 가능하여 자기 기어의 활용가능성은 무한하다. 하지만 권선계자를 사용할 경우 영구자석과 철심간의 흡인력에 의한 코깅토크가 나타나게 되고 이는 회전자의 진동을 유발하는 토크 리플성분의 증가로 이어진다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 권선계자를 사용하는 회전자의 토크 리플을 저감하기 위해 회전자의 다양한 형상을 분석하였으며, 자기 기어의 토크 리플을 저감하기 위한 최적의 형상을 제시하였다.

This paper investigates a high performance converter topology for hydrogen gas generation electrolysis system. The proposed converter topology consists of full-bridge inverter, medium frequency transformer, and diode rectifier. Hydrogen gas generation electrolysis process considered in the paper is analyzed and characterized by its equivalent circuit. The electrolysis cell is modeled as effective resistance, capacitance, inductance, and internal emf voltage source. The proposed converter topology provides enhanced efficiency of hydrogen gas generation process under the operating condition of dc output voltage with high frequency ripple on it. The high performance operation of proposed converter is confirmed through the simulation with the electrolysis cell considered in the equivalent circuit model.

The discrete torque generation mechanism and inherently nonlinear magnetic characterization of switched reluctance motors lead to unacceptable torque ripples and limit the application of these motors. In this study, a phase current profiling technique and torque sharing function are proposed in consideration of magnetic saturation effects and by minimizing power loss in the commutation area between the adjacent phases. Constant torque trajectories are considered in incoming and outgoing phase current planes based on nonlinear T-i-theta curves obtained from experimental measurements. Optimum points on constant torque trajectories are selected by improving drive efficiency and minimizing copper loss in each rotor position. A novel analytic invertible function is introduced to express phase torque based on rotor position and its corresponding phase current. The optimization problem is solved by the proposed torque function, and optimum torque sharing functions are derived. A modification method is also introduced to enhance the torque ripple-free region based on simple logic rules. Compared with conventional torque sharing functions, the resultant reference current from the proposed method has less peak and effective values and exhibits lower copper loss. Experimental and simulation results from a four-phase 4 KW 8/6 SRM validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

An open-end winding (OEW) permanent magnet synchronous motor with dual inverters can synthesize large voltages for a motor with the same DC link voltage. This ability has the advantage of reducing the use of DC/DC boost converters or high voltage batteries. However, zero-sequence voltage (ZSV), which is caused by the difference in the combined voltage between the primary and secondary inverters, can generate a zero-sequence current (ZSC) that increases system losses. Among the methods for eliminating this phenomenon, combining voltage vector eliminated ZSV cannot be accomplished by the conventional Pulse Width Modulation(PWM) method. In this study, a PWM carrier generation method using functionalization to generate a switching pattern to suppress ZSC is proposed and applied to analyze the control influence of the center-zero vector in the switching sequence about the current ripple.

This paper presents the performance improvement of voltage-mode controlled interleaved synchronous buck converters. This is a voltage-mode controlled scheme, where the controllers do not need an external saw-tooth generator for PWM generation and the loop design is easier. The controller implementation requires only a single error amplifier and gives almost current mode control performance. The control scheme uses voltage feedback with two loops similar to current mode control: one for the slow outer loop and the other for the faster inner PWM control loop. To improve the performance of the converter system a coupled inductor is used. This coupled inductor reduces the magnetic size and also improves the converter's transient performance without increasing the steady-state current ripple. The effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is demonstrated through PSIM simulations.

In this paper, we composed solar generation system with multi-phase interleaved boost converter Solar generated voltage is low, so it has need of the boost power conversion device for supply power to normal load. The multi-phase interleaved boost converter is easy to boost voltage and it can be reduced both input current ripple and output voltage ripple because it is composed with multi-phase. We simulated and tested multi-phase interleaved boost converter applied three-phase.
