This paper considers the problem of regulating the output voltage of a current doubler rectified asymmetric half-bridge (CDRAHB) DC/DC converter via fuzzy integral control. First, we model the dynamic characteristics of the CDRAHB converter with the state-space averaging method, and after introducing an additional integral state of the output regulation error, we obtain the Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy model for the augmented system. Second, the concept of parallel distributed compensation is applied to the design of the TS fuzzy integral controller, in which the state feedback gains are obtained by solving the linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Finally, numerical simulations of the considered design method are compared to those of the conventional method, in which a compensated error amplifier is designed for the stability of the feedback control loop.

In this paper, Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy integral control is investigated to regulate the output voltage of an asymmetric half-bridge (AHB) DC/DC converter; First, we model the dynamic characteristics of the AHB DC/DC converter with state-space averaging method and small perturbation at an operating point. After introducing an additional integral state of the output regulation error, we obtain the $5^{th}$-order TS fuzzy model of the AHB DC/DC converter. Second, the concept of the parallel distributed compensation is applied to design the fuzzy integral controller, in which the state feedback gains are obtained by solving the linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Finally, simulation results are presented to show the performance of the considered design method as the output voltage regulator and compared to the results for which the conventional loop gain method is used.

In this paper, a charge controlled asymmetrical half-bridge (ASHB) dc-to-dc converter is presented. For ASHB do-to-dc converter, the peak current-mode control was found to be problematic primarily due to the oscillatory behavior of the current feedback signal. To resolve this problem, a charge control method is applied to the ASHB do-to-dc converter. A 50W prototype ASHB dc-to-dc converter was built, and successfully tested.

In this paper, we have developed a ZVS half-bridge converter with a clamping circuit for the DC power source of PDP circuit. The clamping circuit in the developed converter reduces the oscillating current of the switch by resonant inductor and parasitic parameters in output rectifier diodes. Finally, comparing the experimental results of the developed converter to the conventional ZVS half-bridge converter, it is clarified that the developed converter is more efficient and lower noise than the conventional one.

A novel AC to DC PWM converters with unity input power factor are proposed to overcome the above shortcoming. The main function of these converters is to shape the input line current to force it exactly in phase with the input AC voltage. Therefore, the input power factor can be improved to near unity and the input current harmonics can be eliminated. In this paper, half-bridge converter with two active switches and two diodes are utilized for low-cost type UPS configuration. By having only two semiconductors in the current path at any time, losses can be reduced over the conventional boost topology. Also, this converter provides controllable dc-link voltage, high power factor, and low cost type converter by simple power circuits. Simulation results show that the proposed half-bridge converter/inverter control technique can be applied to single-phase low-cost type UPS systems successfully.

A non-contact battery charger which transfers energy using magnetic field without any electrical contacts is designed using half-bridge series resonant converter. This converter utilizes series resonance to reduce the undesirable effect of large leakage inductance of the non-contact transformer and ZVS operation can reduce switching losses. In this paper. analysis and design procedure of half-bridge series resonant converter with non-contact transformer is presented. Input voltage is 85VAC ${\sim}$ 270VAC, output voltage and current is 4.1V and 800mA, respectively. Furthermore, a method for calculating the secondary current of the transformer to control battery charging current in constant current charging mode which is required for litium-ion battery is proposed and the performance is verified from experiments.

본 논문에서는 비접촉 시스템에 있어서 스위칭 소자의 영 전압 스위칭(ZVS)뿐만 아니라 2차측 정류 다이오드 역시 영 전류 스위칭(ZCS)을 이룰 수 있는 비접촉 변압기를 이용한 Half-Bridge 직렬 공진 컨버터 적용 비접촉 충전 시스템을 제안 적용하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 비접촉 변압기 적용 Half-Bridge 직렬 공진컨버터는 공진 주파수보다 낮은 영역에서 스위칭 동작이 가능하기 때문에 불연속 공진전류에 의한 2차측 정류 다이오드의 영 전류 스위칭(ZCS)이 가능하다. 또한 좁은 주파수 영역에서 제어가 가능하며 높은 전압 이득특성에 따라 적은 턴-수비의 변압기를 사용할 수 있으므로 기존의 비접촉 시스템과 비교해 보았을 때 효율특성을 개선시킬 수 있다. 시뮬레이션과 이론적인 분석을 토대로 3.15W 시제품을 제작하고 실험내용을 서술했다.

This paper deals with a design of a bootstrap power supply using snubber energy regeneration, which is used to power a high-side gate driver of a half-bridge circuit. In the proposed circuit, the energy stored in the low-side snubber capacitor is transferred to the high-side bootstrap capacitor without any magnetic components. Thus, the power dissipation in the RCD snubber can be effectively reduced. The operation principle and design method of the proposed circuit are presented. The experimental results are also provided to show the validity of the proposed circuit.
