LED has been great attentions in lighting industry because of its long life-time, high efficiency, excellent light output characteristics. However, the life-time of the LED driving system is decreased because of the electrolytic capacitor which is used in the power conversion system for driving LED lighting. Therefore the capacitance reduction methods have been studied to replace an electrolytic capacitor with film or tantalum capacitor. This paper presents the Single stage PFC flyback converter with the simplified third harmonic current injection circuit to reduce output capacitance and the proposed system is theoretically analyzed and verified through the experiment.

The active-clamped double forward-flyback converter is studied in this paper. The converter reduces the voltage stress of the switches and decreases switching loss, EMI. The energy stored in the magnetic core is transferred to both the input voltage source and the flyback output. This makes it possible the output circuit of the flyback to operate at CCM without complex control circuit. The MOSFET is used at output stage, which decreases switching loss.

A new three-phase voltage-fed inverter using partial resonant converter with high power factor and high efficiency is proposed. The proposed Flyback converter is constructed by using a resonant network in parallel with the switch of the conventional converter. The devices are switched zero voltage or zero current eliminating the switching loss. This paper introduces elimination of harmonics compared with conventional SPWM inverter and three-phase voltage-fed inverter using Flyback converter.

In this paper, a new SEPIC-Flyback converter with a single transformer has been proposed, which is suitable for a fuel cell based power generation system. The proposed converter is superposition of sepic and flyback converter mode. It has outstanding high boosting output voltage, component utilization and high efficiency characteristics under the inherently severe low output voltage of the fuel cell generator. The proposed converter for a full cell generator is described and verified by simulation and experimental result that make used of the Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell(PEMFC) Generator.

본 논문에서는 고역률 및 고효율 동작이 가능한 단일 전력단 forward-flyback 컨버터를 제안한다. 기존 단일전력단 forward 컨버터의 경우, 입력 전압이 출력 전압보다 낮은 경우 Dead zone 구간이 발생하여 고역률 획득이 어려우며, 자화 인덕터 offset 전류가 크기 때문에 자기소자의 손실로 인한 고효율 동작이 어렵다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 forward-flyback 컨버터는 2차 측에 삽입된 DC 블러킹 캐패시터에 의해 자화 인덕터의 offset 전류를 감소 할 수 있고, 입력 전압에 관계 없이 항상 출력 측으로 에너지를 전달 할 수 있으므로 고효율 및 고역률 획득에 유리하다. 또한 coupled inductor를 사용한 출력 인덕터에 의해 출력 다이오드에는 각 각 동일한 전류가 흐르며, 전압 스트레스를 감소시킬 수 있는 장점이 있다. 제안된 단일 전력단 forward-flyback 컨버터의 타당성을 검증을 위하여 45W급 LED 전원 공급장치의 시작품 제작을 통한 실험 결과를 제시한다.

This paper proposed DC-DC converter for fuel cell that have high voltage and high current output characteristics. It is required step-up converter to use by general power supply, because the general rated voltage of fuel cell is low about 20$\sim$50V. The miniaturization of converter and DC link voltage can be controlled and high quality of output voltage uses mainly DC-DC converter. The boost converter and buck-boost converter do not get high boosting ratio. It is that proposed boost-flyback converter. Through simulation and an experiment, it could get high boosting ratio and efficiency more than 90%.

An active clamp flyback (ACF) converter applies a clamp circuit and circulates the energy of leakage inductance to the input side, thereby achieving a zero-voltage switching (ZVS) operation and greatly reducing switching losses. The switching losses are further reduced by applying a gallium nitride field effect transistor (GaN-FET) with excellent switching characteristics, and ZVS operation can be accomplished under light load with boundary conduction mode (BCM) operation. Optimal design is performed on the basis of loss analysis by selecting magnetization inductance based on BCM operation and a clamp capacitor for loss reduction. Therefore, the size of the reactive element can be reduced through high-frequency operation, and a high-efficiency and high-power-density converter can be achieved. This study proposes an optimal design for a high-efficiency and high-power-density BCM ACF converter based on GaN-FETs and verifies it through experimental results of a 65 W-rated prototype.

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.
