A DC-DC converter is being widely used for various household appliances and for industry applications. The DC-DC converter is powered from single battery, and the voltage is varied according to the purpose. In the vehicle, various accessories whose electric power is different are being used. Thus, plural number of DC-DC converter should be provided, so these situations bring complicated circuits, and accordingly, higher cost. Under such backgrounds, in this paper, we propose a novel buck-boost chopper circuit with simply configuration which can supply to two or more different output loads. The propose chewer circuit can control output voltages by controlling duty ratio by using typically two switching devices, which is composed by single boost-switch and single buck-switch. The output voltage can be controlled widely. A few modified circuits developed from the fundamental circuit are represented including the general multi-load circuit. And all this merits and appropriateness was proved by computer simulation and experience.

Power conversion system must be increased switching frequency in order to achieve a small size, a light weight and a low noise. However, the switches of converter are subjected to high switching power losses and switching stresses. As a result of those, the power system brings on a low efficiency. In this paper, the authors propose a DC-DC boost converter of high power by partial resonant switch method (PRSM). The switching devices in a proposed circuit are operated with soft switching and the control technique of those is simplified for switch to drive in constant duty cycle. The partial resonant circuit makes use of a inductor using step up and a condenser of loss-less snubber. Also the circuit has a merit which is taken to increase of efficiency, as it makes to a regeneration at input source of accumulated energy in snubber condenser without loss of snubber in conventional circuit. The result is that the switching loss is very low and the efficiency of system is high. The proposed converter is deemed the most suitable for high power applications where the power switching devices are used.

The purpose using the way with this kind of high-capacity altogether is to supply the output voltage and output current regardless of the input voltage or to the external environmental conditions of the secondary-side load fluctuation. In this paper, a combination of a Buck Converter with Boost Converter by making a constant current source to control the inductor current and maintain stable power supply side operating characteristics, when load variations. While maintaining the same characteristics as conventional Buck Converter, and offer a DC-DC Converter system with the new switch pattern having a wide output range capable of operating in Buck-Boost Converter. In addition, after theoretical analysis, we carry out simulations and experiments to verify the validity and performance comparing with a conventional DC-to-DC converter.

The conventional way to implement a bidirectional converter with boost/buck has been to use two general purpose PWM ICs with a single supply voltage. In this case, when one direction mode is in operation, the other is disabled and the output of the error amplifier of the disabled IC may be saturated to a maximum value or zero. Therefore, during mode transition, a circuit which can disable the switching operation for a certain time interval is required making it impossible to get a seamless transition. In this paper, the limitations of the conventional 42V/14V bi-directional DC/DC converter implemented with general current mode PWM ICs with a single supply voltage are reviewed and a new current mode PWM controller circuit with a dual voltage system is proposed. The validity of the proposed circuit is investigated through simulation. and experiments.

In this paper, we proposed the Z-source four-switch three-phase rectifier. As we know, the conventional Four-Switch Three-Phase Rectifier(FSTPR) has advantages of the lower cost and less complex switching control. However, The conventional FSTPR can only either perform buck or boost operation, it can only attain the buck-boost operation by adding another DC-DC converter. In addition, besides its narrow output voltage region, distortion of the input current is serious either. Thus, we proposed the Z-source FSTPR which has buck-boost function and better input current waveform by applying the Z-impedance network to the conventional FSTPR. The validity of the proposed system was confirmed by experiments.

태양광 패널의 큰 기생 커패시턴스에 기인하는 과도한 누설 전류를 피하기 위한 단상 태양광 인버터 중에 부스트 컨버터와 하프브리지 인버터를 종속적으로 결합하는 방식은 가장 단순하면서 누설 전류가 가장 작다. 하지만 직류단 전압이 높아 스위칭 소자의 정격 전압이 높고 스위칭 손실이 크다. 본 논문은 부스트 컨버터를 제거하는 대신에 하프브리지 인버터의 출력 측에 2개의 양방향 스위치를 추가함으로써 벅부스트 인버터로 동작할 수 있는 새로운 회로 토폴로지를 제안한다. 고전압 직류단을 거치는 두 단계의 전력 변환을 한 단계로 줄인 덕분에 전력 손실을 절감할 수 있으며 비용 및 누설 전류는 증가하지 않는다. 제안된 회로 토폴로지의 타당성은 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 및 전력 손실 계산을 통해 검증한다.

This paper proposes a new soft-switched Sepic converter. It has low switching losses and low conduction losses due to its auxiliary communicated circuit and synchronous rectifier operation, respectively. Because of its positive and buck/boost-like DC voltage transfer function (M=D/(1-D)), the proposed converter is desirable for use in distributed power systems. The proposed converter has versions both with and without a transformer. The paper also suggests some design guidelines in terms of the power circuit and the control loop for the proposed converter.

DC/DC Switching power converters are commonly used to generate regulated DC output voltages with high-power efficiencies from different DC input sources. A switching converter utilizes one or more energy storage elements such as capacitors, or transformers to efficiently transfer energy from the input to the output at periodic intervals. The fundamental boost converter studied here consists of a power metal-oxide semiconductor field effect transistor switch, an inductor, a capacitor, a diode, and a pulse-width modulation circuit with oscillator, amplifier, and comparator. A buck converter containing a switched-mode power supply is also studied. In this paper, the electrical characteristics of DC/DC power converters are simulated by simulation program with integrated circuit emphasis (SPICE). Furthermore, power efficiency was analyzed based on the specifications of each component.

In this paper a new buck-boost type DC-DC converter is presented. Its voltage gain is positive, all active elements operate under soft-switching condition independent of loading, magnetic isolation and self output short-circuit protection exist, and very fast dynamic operation is achievable by a simple bang-bang controller. This converter also exhibits appropriate PFC characteristics since its input current is inherently proportional to the source voltage. When the voltage source is off-line, it is sufficient to add an inductor after the rectifier, then near unity power factor is achievable. All essential guidelines to design the converter as a DC-DC and a PFC regulator are presented. Simulation and experimental results verify the developed theoretical analysis.
