A simple technique for PFC circuit is presented using UC3854. This technique is about current peak controlling by a reference current generator. Decreased peak currents of the boost pre-regulator reduce circuit current stress and so rated currents of circuit elements are minimized. Simulation and experimental results will verify the viability of the new scheme.

본 논문에서는 능동역률보상(PFC)의 구조를 가진 SEPIC 컨버터를 이용한 무전극 형광램프(electrodeless fluorescent lamps)용 전자식 안정기를 제안하였다. SEPIC 컨버터는 입력 전류의 낮은 고조파와 고역률의 특성을 가진다. 제안된 제어방법으로는 UC3854의 적분회로를 이용한 것으로 이 기술은 전류연속모드로 동작하는 역률보상 및 과전류보호를 제공하는 매우 간단한 제어 회로이다. 제안된 무전극 형광램프용 전자식 안정기는 3개의 무전극 형광램프용으로 설계되어 기존의 무전극 형광램프용 전자식 안정기보다 에너지 및 제작비 절약 효과가 크다. 제안된 안정기의 특성을 측정하기 위해 실험을 실시하였으며 이를 통해 고역률과 낮은 THD를 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는 IEC 61000-3-2와 같은 고조파 전류 국제규제에 만족하기 위해서 인버터 에어컨을 위한 고역률 단상능동정류가(SAR) [4-6]를 적용하였다. 입력전류의 왜곡을 최소화하고 FA5331, UC3854, ML4821 등과 같은 제어IC를 적용하기 위해서 입력전압 및 전류에 대한 새롭고 적절한 검출회로를 제안하였다. 효율 및 가격의 관점에서 SAR를 인버터 에어컨에 적용하기 위한 두가지 방법이 있다. 이런 두가지 방식에 대해서 수동소자의 선정방법을 제시하였다. 결정된 소자들을 사용하여 SAR 효율의 증가 여부를 확인하기 위해서 손실분석을 행하였다. 3kW급의 이러한 두가지 방식에 대한 프로트형 SAR회로를 제작하고 실험결과를 통해서 역률제어능력을 갖는 회로의 동작과 성능을 확인하였다.

In this paper, a Single-phase Active Rectifier(SAR) with high power factor capability for inverter air-conditioner is adopted for satisfying the international standards of input current harmonics, IEC 1000-3-2. Comparing the conventional boost power factor correction circuit, one diode drop is reduced in the power flow path of the SAR circuit, so the system efficiency is improved. To apply the control IC, such as UC3854, ML4821 and so forth, to the SAR, the adequate sensing circuits are proposed. The design rules of passive components and two control loops are also presented. The prototype SAR circuit with 3㎾ power consumption is builted and tested to verify the operation of the proposed circuit.

A Single-phase Active Rectifier (SAR) [4-6] with high power factor capability is adopted to satisfy the international harmonic current standards such as IEC 1000-3-2. To minimize the input current distortion and to apply the control IC, such as FA5331, UC3854, ML4821 and so forth, the new adequate sensing circuits of the input voltage and current are proposed. There are tow methods applicable the SAR to inverter air-conditioner from the viewpoint of both efficiency and cost. The selecting methods of the passive components are presented for the two approaches. Using the determined components, the loss analyses are carried out. The prototype SAR circuits of these two approaches with 3kW power consumption are built and the operation and performance of the circuits with power factor correction capability are verified through the experimental results.

A pulse width modulation(PWM) method for single-phase Sepic-type rectifier is introduced in this paper. The characteristics of the proposed PWM system are high performance high power factor with low input current harmonic distortion. The proposed control method is based on the average-current-mode using the dedicated integrated circuit UC3854 this technique it is possible to implement a very simple control circuit for unitary power-factor in CCM operation and also to provide over-current protection.

In this study, a novel single phase soft switched power factor correction (PFC) converter is developed with active snubber cell. The active snubber cell provides boost switch both to turn on with zero voltage transition (ZVT) and to turn off with zero current transition (ZCT). As the switching losses in the proposed converter are too low, L and C size can be reduced by increasing the operating frequency. Also, all the semiconductor devices operate with soft switching. There is no additional voltage stress in the boost switch and diode. The proposed converter has a simple structure, low cost and ease of control as well. It has a simple control loop to achieve near unity power factor with the aid of the UC3854. In this study, detailed steady state analysis of the proposed converter is presented and this theoretical analysis is verified by a prototype of 100 kHz and 500 W converter. The measured power factor and efficiency are 0.99 and 97.9% at full load.
