This paper proposes a simple unity power factor zero-voltage-transition (ZVT) pulse-width-modulated (PWM) single-phase rectifier, which features reduced switching and conduction losses. The switching loss reduction is achieved by a simple auxiliary commutation circuit, and the conduction loss reduction is achieved by employing a single-stage converter, rather than a typical double-stage converter comprising of a front-end rectifier and a boost rectifier. Furthermore, thanks to good features such as a simple PWM control at constant frequency, low switch stress, low Var rating of commutation circuits, and simple power circuit structure, it is suitable for high power applications. The principles of operation are explained in detail, and a major characteristics analysis and the experimental results of the new converter are also included in this paper.

본 논문은 기존의 2개의 전력 처리단을 갖는 컨버터를 단일 전력단으로 구성하고, ZVS기법을 이용한 고역률 단일전력단 고주파 공진 AC-DC 컨버터를 제안하고 있다. 입력단에 승압형 역률개선 인덕터를 연결하여 일정 듀티비와 가변 스위칭 주파수로 입력전류를 불연속 모드로 제어함으로써 입력 역률을 개선하는 것이 가능하였다. 종래의 2개 전력 처리단을 가지는 컨버터의 경우 역률 제어용 스위치가 별도로 필요하지만 전력 처리단을 하나로 단일화 시키므로써 컨버터의 구성이 간략화 되어져, 비용의 저감과 신뢰성을 증가시킬 수 있는 등의 장점이 있다. 본 연구는 고역률 단일전력단 AC-DC 컨버터의 동작원리와 무차원화 파라미터를 이용한 특성평가를 범용성 있게 행하여, 특성평가에서 산출한 특성값을 기초로 하여 실험장치를 제작하였으며, 실험치와 이론치를 비교ㆍ검토하여 제안 회로의 특성해석의 정당성을 입증하고 있다.

This paper proposes a new single stage power factor correction (PFC) full bridge converter which operates at continuous conduction mode(CCM). The proposed single stage PFC consists of typical zero voltage switching(ZVS) full bridge DC/DC converter, two transformer auxiliary windings, and two small inductors, and two diodes. Neither additional active switch nor any control circuit are added for PFC resulting in very low cost. The proposed converter provides input power factor correction with CCM control and tight output voltage regulation. All switching devices are operated under ZVS with minimum voltage stress. Operation principle and analysis are explained and verified with computer simulation and experimental results on a 1.2kW, 100kHz prototype.

A novel single-stage power factor corrected (PFC) drive for switched reluctance motor (SRM) is presented to achieve sinusoidal, near unity power factor input current. The proposed PFC SRM drive has no additional active switch. And a single-stage approach, which combines a DC link capacitor used as do source and a drive used for driving the motor into one power stage, has a simple structure and low cost. The characteristics and validity of the proposed circuit will be discussed in depth through the experimental results.

This paper proposes new single stage power factor correction (PFC) full bridge converter. The proposed converter is combined previous ZVS full bridge DC/DC converter with two inductors, two diodes, two magnetic coupling transformer for PFC. This process of power is isolated from the source and also regulate stable DC output voltage in a category. In this topology, the voltage stress of main switches is reduced by zero voltage switching. Moreover, the proposed converter doesn't need active PFC switch and auxiliarly circuits, like control and gating board, so it could decrease the size and cost and increase the efficiency.

A low cost PDP sustain power supply is proposed based on flyback topology. By using Boundary Conduction Method(BCM) to control input current regulation, DCM condition can be met under all load conditions. Another feature of the proposed method is that a excessive voltage stress due to the link voltage increase can be suppressed by removing link capacitor and suggest new 'Level-shifting switch driver'. this new gate driver is improved 66% of efficiency than switching loss of a existed push-pull amplifier. The proposed converter is tested with a 400W(200V-2A output) prototype circuit.

This paper presents the single-stage High Power Factor TTFC(Two-Transistor Forward Converter). Recently, due to growing concern about the harmonic pollution of power distribution systems and the adoption of standards such as ICE 61000-3-2 and IEEE 519, There is a need to reduce the harmonic contests of AC line currents of power supplies. This research proposed the single-stage two switch forward circuit for low voltage and high current output.
