본 논문에서는 영전압 스위칭(ZVS)과 전류불연속 모드(DCM)에 의한 새로운 고효율의 DC-DC 컨버터에 대해 연구된다. 일반적으로 고효율의 컨버터를 만들기 위해서는 전력변환기내에 사용된 반도체 스위칭 소자의 손실을 최소화하여 이루어진다. 제안한 컨버터는 DCM에 의하여 스위치의 턴-온 동작을 영전류 스위칭(ZCS)으로 만들고, 또한 새로운 유사공진 회로를 접목하여 컨버터의 고효율을 실현시킨다. 제안한 컨버터에 사용된 제어용 스위칭 소자들은 유사공진 기법에 의해 소프트 스위칭, 즉 ZVS와 ZCS으로 동작시키고, 이에 따른 제어용 스위칭 소자들은 전압과 전류의 스트레스 없이 동작한다. 그 결과 제안한 컨버터는 스위칭 손실의 저감에 의해 고효율로 구동된다. 제안한 DCM-ZVS 컨버터의 소프트 스위칭 동작과 시스템 효율은 디지털 시뮬레이션과 실험결과를 통해 그 타당성이 입증된다.

buck type converter doesn't appear when an input voltag eis lower than an output voltage. This is the main reason the buck converter has not been used for high power factor converters. In this paper, soft switching high power factor buck converter is proposed. This converter is composed of diode rectifier, input capacitor can be small enough to filter input current, buck converter with loss less snubber circuit. Converter is operated in discontinous conduction mode, turn on of the switching device is a zero current switching (ZCS) and high powr factor input is obtianed. In addition, zero voltage switching (ZVS) at trun off is achieved and switching loss is reduced using loss less snubber circuit. The capacitor used in the snubber circuit raised output voltage. Therefore, proposed converter has higher output voltage and higher efficiency than conventional buck type converter at same duty factor in discontinous conduction mode operation. High power factro, efficiency, soft switching operation of proposed converter is veified by simulation using Pspice and experimental results.

A flyback converter operates with either pulse width modulation (PWM) or pulse frequency modulation (PFM) control scheme depending on the load current. At light load condition, PFM control is employed to reduce the switching frequency and thereby minimize the switching power loss. For heavier load, PWM control is used to regulate the output voltage of the flyback converter. The flyback controller has been implemented in a $0.35{\mu}m$ BCDMOS process and applied to a 40-W flyback converter. The light-load power efficiency of the flyback converter is improved up to 5.7-% comparing with the one operating with a fixed switching frequency.

A step-down DC-DC converter with On-chip Compensation for battery-operated portable electronic devices which are designed in 0.18um CMOS standard process. In an effort to improve low load efficiency, this paper proposes the PFM (Pulse Frequency modulation) voltage mode 1MHz switching frequency step-down DC-DC converter with on-chip compensation. Capacitor multiplier method can minimize error amplifier compensation block size by 20%. It allows the compensation block of DC-DC converter be easily integrated on a chip and occupy less layout area. But capacitor multiplier operation reduces DC-DC converter efficiency. As a result, this converter shows maximum efficiency over 87% for the output voltage of 1.8V (input voltage : 3.3V), maximum load current 500mA, and 0.14% output ripple voltage. The total core chip area is $mm^2$.

A new partial resonant three phase boost converter with high power factor and high efficiency is proposed. The proposed boost converter is constructed by using a resonant network in parallel with the swithch of the conventional boost converter. The devices are switched at zero voltage or zero current eliminating the switching loss. A new auxiliary partial resonant boost converter achieves zero-voltage switching(ZVS) or zero-current switching(ZCS) for all switch devices without increasing their voltage and current stresses.

A high efficiency soft switching boost converter is proposed in this paper. The conventional boost converter generates switching losses at turn on and off. Because of those, the whole system efficiency is reduced. The proposed converter utilizes soft switching method using resonant circuit with an auxiliary switch. Therefore, the proposed converter reduces switching losses lower than the hard switching. The proposed soft switching boost converter can be applied to photovoltaic system, power factor correction circuit and etc.
