In the buck-boost DC-DC converter which is used at a certain situation such as in factories where loads often change a lot, the switches in the device make big energy loss in operating at Buck-Boost Mode due to hard switching and are affected by lots of stresses which decrease the efficiency rate of the converter. In order to improve this problem, to decrease the loss of snubber and switching, it has been investigated that zero voltage switching mode and zero current switching mode which make the operation of switches with soft switching. For the more sophisticated and advanced device, this paper is presented the Partial Resonant Soft Switching Mode Power Converter which is adapted the power converter having the partial resonant soft switching mode, that makes switches operate when the resonant current or voltage becomes zero by making the resonant circuit partially at turning on and off of the switches with suitable layout of the resonant elements and switch elements in the converter. Also, this paper includes the analysis and simulation of the Partial Resonant type Buck-Boost Chopper.

This paper presents the digital control techniques of a bidirectional CRM(critical-conduction mode) buck(boost) converter, a dead-time design method that optimizes ZVS(zero-voltage switching) and valley-switching operation, and a switching-frequency limitation that ensures stable converter operation. To verify the feasibility of the design, a Si-MOSFET-based bidirectional CRM buck(boost) converter is built with 260-430 V input, 160-240 V output, and 1.0 kW rated capacity. The bidirectional CRM converter achieves an efficiency of up to 99.6% at buck mode and 98.7% at boost mode under rated load conditions.

Because conventional switching converters have been usually using unbalanced circuit topologies, parasitic capacitance between the drain/collector of an active switch and the frame ground through its heat sink may generate the common-mode conducted noise. We have proposed a balanced switching converter circuit, which is an effective way to reduce the common-mode conducted noise. As an example, a boost converter version of the balanced switching converter was presented and the mechanism of the common-mode noise reduction was explained using equivalent circuits. This paper extends the concept of the balanced switching converter circuit and presents a buck-boost converter version of the balanced switching converter. The feature of common-mode noise reduction is confirmed by experimental results and the mechanism of the common-mode noise reduction is explained using equivalent circuits.

본 논문에서는 소프트 스위칭에 의한 새로운 고효율의 벅-부스트 DC-DC 컨버터에 대해 연구된다. 제안된 벅-부스트 컨버터는 기존의 벅-부스트 DC-DC 컨버터에서 문제가 되는 제어용 스위치의 스위칭 손실증대를 해결하기 위해 새로운 소프트 스위칭 기법이 적용된다. 소프트 스위칭 회로는 구조적으로 기존의 컨버터에 사용되는 벅-부스트용 인덕터와 스너버 회로를 변형 설계한 구조로써 회로구성이 간단하다. 제안된 컨버터에 사용된 제어스위치들은 부분공진의 동작에 의해 소프트 스위칭을 이룬다. 또한 컨버터의 출력전압은 제어스위치의 PWM 제어에 의해 조정되고 벅-부스트용 인덕터에 흐르는 전류는 불연속모드로 제어되어 제어회로와 제어기법이 간단한 장점이 주어진다. 제안된 벅-부스트 컨버터는 기존의 벅-부스트 컨버터와 비교되어 해석되고 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통해 그 해석적 타당성이 입증된다.

The miniturization of a DC-DC converter circuit in connection with the stability is investigated in this paper. As both the capacitance of the smoothing capacitor and the inductance of the reactor are reduced by raising the switching frequency, it is known that the stability of the buck converter declines with the switching frequency but the buck-boost converter has a nearly uniform stability. Furthermore, that in the frequency region above a certain switching frequency the buck-boost converter is suitable for the miniturization of circuit is cleared.

The miniturization of a DC-to-DC converter in connection with the stability is investigated in this paper. As both the capacitance of the smoothing capacitor and the inductance of the reactor are reduced by rasing the switching frequency, it is known that the stability of the buck converter declines with the switching frequency but the buck-boost converter has a nearly uniform stability. Furthermore, that the buck-boost converter is suitable for the miniturization of circuit is cleared in the high frequency region above a certain switching frequency.

This paper presents a new isolated soft-switching bidirectional buck-boost inverter for fuel cell applications. The buck-boost inverter combines an isolated DC-DC converter with a conventional inverter to implement buck-boost DC-DC and DC-AC conversion. The main switches achieve zero voltage switching and zero current switching by using a novel synchronous switching SVPWM and the volume of the transformer in the forward and fly-back mode is also minimized. This inverter is suitable for wide input voltage applications due to its high efficiency under all conditions. An active clamping circuit reduces the switch's spike voltage and regenerates the energy stored in the leakage inductance of the transformer; therefore, the overall efficiency is improved. This paper presents the operating principle, a theoretical analysis and design guidelines. Simulation and experimental results have validated the characteristics of the buck-boost inverter.
