Maximum-Efficiency Tracking Scheme for Piezoelectric-Transformer Inverter with Dimming Control

  • Published : 2001.10.01

Abstract

This paper provides a solution for the problem of efficiency decrease caused by load variation. A novel control scheme of tracking the PT's operation frequency for the maximum efficiency is proposed. As a result, a high efficiency over $80\%$ has been achieved even under the output-current decrease down to $10\%$ of the full load current.
