The Clamp Mode(CM) Forward Zero Voltage Switching Multi Resonant Converter(ZVS-MRC) with self-driven synchronous rectifier in studied. The loss at the synchronous rectification stage of the converter is analyzed using MOSFET linear model and is compared with the loss at the conventional schottky diode rectification stage of the converter. From the results of the analysis, it is known that the use of MOSFETs as a synchronous rectifier reduces the loss at the rectification stage over the whole load range comparing the use of schottky diodes as a conventional rectifier in the converter. In order to verify the validity of the analysis, we have built a 33W(3.3V/10A) CM Forward ZVS-MRC with self-driven synchronous rectifier, in which switching frequency is 1MHz, and tested. From the experimental results, it is known that the synchronous rectification achieved about 1W improvement in the loss at the rectification stage and about 3% in the efficiency at the converter as compared with the conventional schottky diode rectification.

The multi-resonant converter(MRC) minimizes a parasitic oscillation by using the resonant tank circuit absorbed parasitic reactances existing in a converter circuit. So it si possible that the converter operated at a high frequency has a high efficiency because the losses are reduced. Such a MHz high frequency applications provide a high power density [W/inch3] of the converter. But the resonant voltage stress across a switch of the resonant tank circuit is 4~5 times a input voltage. This h호 voltage stress increases the conduction loss because of on-resistance of a MOSFET with higher rating. Thus, in this paper we proposed the alternated multi-resonant converter (AT MRC) differ from the clamp mode multi-resonant converter and applicated it to the forward MRC. The AT forward MRC can reduce the voltage stress to 2~3 times a input voltage by using two series input capacitor. The control circuit is simple because tow resonant switches are driven directly by the output pulse of the voltage controled oscillator. This circuit type is verified through the experimental converter with 48V input voltage, 5V/50W output voltage/power and PSpice simulation. the measured maximum voltage stress is 170V of 2.9 times the input voltage and the maximum efficiency of 81.66% is measured.

This paper presents an analysis method of a forward converter, using both the finite element method considering the external circuit and a state variables equation. The converter operates at 50kHz and its one period is divided into two modes for the simplicity of the analysis. In the first mode, the switching transistor turns on and an input power is transferred into the load by the electromagnetic conversion action of a ferrite transformer. In the second mode, the switching transistor turns off and the stored energy in an inductor is delivered to the load, and the transformer core is demagnetized by the reset winding current. In this paper, time-stepping finite element method taking into account the on-state electrical circuit of the converter in used to analyze both the electrical circuit and electromagnetic field of the magnetic device during the first mode and the demagnetization period of the transformer core. Then a state variables equation for the circuit which the inductor current flows is constituted and solved during the second mode. As a result, the simulation results have been good agreement with the results obtained form experiment.

This study proposes a new type of active-clamp forward-flyback converter with two transformers that operate in forward and flyback modes during on and off times, respectively, instead of not using an output inductor. The main switch can be turned on with zero-voltage switching (ZVS) using the leakage inductance of the transformer and the output capacitor of the main switch. The leakage inductance should be increased to ZVS. However, the ringing between the leakage inductance of the transformer and the parasitic output capacitance of the secondary side rectifier switches results in a serious voltage spike. A forward-flyback converter employing auxiliary inductor and auxiliary diode is proposed to overcome the problem. The operational principles are analyzed in detail and validated through experiments with a 385 V-to-53 V/37 A prototype.

증분형 아날로그 디지털 변환기는 전통적인 델타 시그마 아날로그 디지털 컨버터와 달리 리셋 동작을 통한 입력과 출력의 1:1 매핑이 가능하며 이는 멀티플렉싱에 매우 용이하게 사용될 수 있다. 또한, 증분형 아날로그 디지털 변화기는 전통적인 델타 시그마 변환기에 비해 간단한 디지털 필터 설계가 가능하다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 아날로그 디지털 컨버터 설계에 기본이 되는 딜레이가 있는 적분기와 딜레이가 없는 적분기의 시간 영역에서의 분석을 시작으로 2차 입력 피드 포워드, 확장된 카운팅, 2+1 매쉬, 2+2 매쉬 구조를 갖는 증분형 아날로그 디지털 변환기의 설계 방정식을 유도한다. 이를 통해 설계 이전에 증분형 아날로그 디지털 변환기의 성능을 예측할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 각각의 아날로그 디지털 변화기에 적합한 디지털 필터를 설계할 수 있다. 또한, 아날로그 디지털 변환기의 정확도를 향상 시키기 위한 확장된 카운팅, MASH의 설계 기술들을 제안하였다.

This paper proposes an energy storage-assisted, series-connected module-integrated power conversion system that integrates a photovoltaic power conditioner and a charge balancing circuit. In conventional methods, a photovoltaic power conditioner and a cell-balancing circuit are needed for photovoltaic systems with energy storage devices, but they cause a complex configuration and high cost. Moreover, an imbalanced output voltage of the module-integrated converter for PV panels can be a result of partial shading. Partial shading can lead to the fault condition of the boost converter in shaded modules and high voltage stresses on the devices in other modules. To overcome these problems, a bidirectional buck-boost converter with an integrated magnetic device operating for a charge-balancing circuit is proposed. The proposed circuit has multiple secondary rectifiers with inductors sharing a single magnetic core, which works as an inductor for the main bidirectional charger/discharger of the energy storage. The secondary rectifiers operate as a cell-balancing circuit for both energy storage and the series-connected multiple outputs of the module-integrated converter. The operating principle of the cell-balancing power conversion circuit and the power stage design are presented and validated by PSIM simulation for analysis. A hardware prototype with equivalent photovoltaic modules is implemented for verification. The results verify that the modularized photovoltaic power conversion system in the output series with an energy storage successfully works with the proposed low-cost bidirectional buck-boost converter comprising a single magnetic device.
