본 논문에서는 단일 스위치를 사용한 LC 직렬 공진형 부스트 컨버터를 제안하였다. 제안하는 토폴로지는 별도의 보조 스위치의 추가 없이 일반 부스트 컨버터에 수동소자만을 추가하여 스위치 턴-온, 턴-오프 시 영전압 스위칭(ZVS; Zero Voltage Switching)을 수행한다. 이 토폴로지는 LC직렬 공진에 의해 스위치 오프 타임이 결정되므로, 스위치 온 타임을 가변하여 출력전압을 조절하는 온 타임 가변형 주파수 변조 기법으로 제어된다. 전류 도통 경로에 따라 제안된 회로의 동작 모드를 구분하였고, 제안된 컨버터의 동작모드와 특성은 수학적 해석과 시뮬레이션 및 실험을 통해서 검증하였다.

This paper presents an interleaved resonant converter with a parallel-series transformer connection in order to achieve ripple current reduction at the output capacitor, zero voltage turn-on for the active switches, zero current turn-off for the rectifier diodes, less voltage stress on the rectifier diodes, and less current stress on the transformer primary windings. The primary windings of the two transformers are connected in parallel in order to share the input current and to reduce the root-mean-square (rms) current on the primary windings. The secondary windings of the two transformers are connected in series in order to ensure that the transformer primary currents are balanced. A full-wave diode rectifier is used at the output side to clamp the voltage stress of the rectifier diode at the output voltage. Two circuit modules are operated with the interleaved PWM scheme so that the input and output ripple currents are reduced. Based on the resonant behavior, all of the active switches are turned on under zero voltage switching (ZVS), and the rectifier diodes are turned off under zero current switching (ZCS) if the operating switching frequency is less than the series resonant frequency. Finally, experiments with a 1kW prototype are described to verify the effectiveness of the proposed converter.

The LLC series resonant converter with a LLT(Inductor-Inductor-Transformer) transformer for PDP V sustaining power supply is presented. LLT transformer used to combine the inductor and transformer into one unit has the increased leakage inductance in the primary and secondary due to the winding method and the use of the gaped core. The increased leakage inductance in the primary and secondary of LLT transformer can be impacted on the DC voltage gain characteristics of LLC series resonant converter. In this paper, DC gain characteristics and the experimental results of the LLC series resonant converter with a LLT transformer are verified on the simulation based on the theoretical analysis and the 400W experimental prototype.

Conventionally, for transferring the primary power to the secondary one, the high frequency series resonant converter has been widely used for the contactless power supply system. However, the high frequency series resonant converter has the disadvantages such as the low efficiency, the high voltage gain characteristics and deviation of the phase angle in the overall load range. To improve this disadvantages, In this paper, the characteristics of the high efficiency and unit voltage gain as well as in-phase are revealed in the proposed three-level LCLC (Inductor-Capacitor- Inductor-Capacitor) resonant converter. The results are verified on the simulation based on the theoretical analysis and the 4kW experimental Prototype.

The multi-resonant converter minimizes a parasitic oscillation by using the resonant tank circuit absorbed parasitic reactance existing in a converter circuit. So it is possible that the converter operated at a high frequency has a high efficiency because the losses are reduced. However, the resonant voltage stress across a switch is four or five times a input voltage. This high voltage stress increases the conduction loss. In this paper, we proposed the AT flyback multi-resonant converter. The proposed converter can reduce the voltage stress to two or three times by using two series input capacitors. The operational principle of the proposed converter was verified through the experimental converter.

A soft switching converter with wide voltage range operation is investigated in this paper. A series resonant converter is implemented to achieve a high circuit efficiency with soft switching characteristics on power switches and rectifier diodes. To improve the weakness of the narrow voltage range in LLC converters, an alternating current (ac) power switch is used on the primary side to select a half-bridge or full-bridge resonant circuit to implement 4:1 voltage range operation. On the secondary-side, another ac power switch is adopted to select a full-wave rectifier or voltage-doubler rectifier to achiever an additional 2:1 output voltage range. Therefore, the proposed resonant converter has the capacity for 8:1 (320V~40V) wide output voltage operation. A single-stage hybrid resonant converter is employed in the study circuit instead of a two-stage dc converter to achiever wide voltage range operation. As a result, the study converter has better converter efficiency. The theoretical analysis and circuit characteristics are verified by experiments with a prototype circuit.

본 논문에서는 비접촉 시스템에 있어서 스위칭 소자의 영 전압 스위칭(ZVS)뿐만 아니라 2차측 정류 다이오드 역시 영 전류 스위칭(ZCS)을 이룰 수 있는 비접촉 변압기를 이용한 Half-Bridge 직렬 공진 컨버터 적용 비접촉 충전 시스템을 제안 적용하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 비접촉 변압기 적용 Half-Bridge 직렬 공진컨버터는 공진 주파수보다 낮은 영역에서 스위칭 동작이 가능하기 때문에 불연속 공진전류에 의한 2차측 정류 다이오드의 영 전류 스위칭(ZCS)이 가능하다. 또한 좁은 주파수 영역에서 제어가 가능하며 높은 전압 이득특성에 따라 적은 턴-수비의 변압기를 사용할 수 있으므로 기존의 비접촉 시스템과 비교해 보았을 때 효율특성을 개선시킬 수 있다. 시뮬레이션과 이론적인 분석을 토대로 3.15W 시제품을 제작하고 실험내용을 서술했다.

The multi-resonant converter minimizes the parasitic oscillations using the resonant tank circuit absorbed parasitic reactances in a converter. So the converter can be operated at a high frequency and it provides a high efficiency because the switching power losses are reduced effectively. However, the high resonant voltage stress of semiconductors leads to the conduction loss. In this paper, it is proposed the novel flyback multi-resonant converter. The converter input is divided by two series input capacitors. And also the resonant stress is reduced to 2-3 times input voltage without any complexity and it provides the various circuit schemes in lots of applications. The proposed converters are verified through simulation and experiment.
