Buck+Half Bridge Converter efficiency characteristics

벅+하프 브리지 컨버터에서 벅 컨버터의 출력 인덕턴스 감과 스위칭 주파수, 변압기 코어 형태에 따른 효율 특성

We considered of the efficiency for the Buck+Half bridge converter This converter has advantages of applications for a low output voltage, a high output current and a wide input voltage. Developed the Buck converter ratings and the Half Bridge converter ratings are 36$\~$72V Input and 22V/5A output, 19$\~$24v input and 3.3V/30A output, respectively. Buck converter is operated with zero voltage switching process to reduce the switching losses. The 80.1 $\~$97.6$\%$ of the efficiency is measured at 18.4 $\mu$H output filter inductance of Buck convertor. In Half Bridge convertor, the 86$\~$96.4$\%$ of the efficiency is measured at 100kHz switching frequency with PQI core.
