This paper is a study on the bi-directional DC-DC converter, one of the key elements of 48V-12V dual systems in mild hybrid electric vehicles. Mild hybrid electric vehicles require a bi-directional DC-DC converter that can efficiently transmit power in two directions between a 48V battery and a 12V battery. To develop a bi-directional DC-DC converter with better price competitiveness, upgraded fuel economy, excellent performance and smaller size, this study designed, produced and presented a circuit that improved on the existing one. In the proposed 8-phase bi-directional DC-DC converter, the size of the passive element was reduced through the 8-phase interleaved topology, whereas downscaling had previously posed a difficulty. This study also designed and produced a 2.5kW class prototype. Based on the proposed 8-phase interleaved topology, a size of 227.5 (W) * 172 (L) * 64.35 (H) was achieved. In the boost mode operation and buck operation modes, the maximum efficiency was recorded at 94.04 % and 95.78 %, respectively.

This paper presents a novel soft-switching PWM utility frequency AC to high frequency AC power conversion circuit Incorporating boost-half-bridge inverter topology, which is more suitable and acceptable for cost effective consumer induction heating applications. The operating principle and the operation modes are presented using the switching mode and the operating voltage and current waveforms. The performances of this high-frequency inverter using the latest IGBTs are illustrated, which includes high frequency power regulation and actual efficiency characteristics based on zero voltage soft switching (ZVS) operation ranges and the power dissipation as compared with those of the previously developed high-frequency inverter. In addition, a dual mode control scheme of this high frequency inverter based on asymmetrical pulse width modulation (PWM) and pulse density modulation (PDM) control scheme is discussed in this paper in order to extend the soft switching operation ranges and to improve the power conversion efficiency at the low power settings. The power converter practical effectiveness is substantially proved based on experimental results from practical design example.

본 논문에서는 2.9 V ~ 5.6V의 넓은 입력 전압 범위를 가지는 웨어러블 AMOLED용 2-채널 DC-DC 변환기를 설계한다. 양전압 V_POS는 과도한 입력전압이 인가된다 하더라도 정상 출력 전압을 생성되는 OPC를 내장하고, 경부하 효율을 제고하기 위한 SPWM-PWM 듀얼모드 및 파워 트랜지스터 3-분할을 적용한 부스트 변환기로 설계한다. 음전압 V_NEG는 전력 효율을 높이기 위해 0.5x 인버팅 차지펌프를 이용해 설계한다. 제안된 DC-DC 변환기는 0.18-㎛ BCDMOS 공정으로 설계하였다. DC-DC 변환기는 2.9V~5.6V의 입력 전압에 대해 4.6V의V_POS와 -0.6V~-2.3V의 V_NEG 전압을 생성한다. 또한 1mA~70mA 부하전류에서 49%~92%의 전력효율과 최대 20mV의 출력 리플을 가졌다.
