The LLC series resonant converter with a LLT (Inductor-Inductor-Transformer) transformer for PDP power supply is presented. LLT transformer used to combine the inductor and transformer into one unit has the increased leakage inductance in the primary and secondary due to the winding method and the use of the gaped core. The increased leakage inductance in the primary and secondary of LLT transformer can be impacted on the DC voltage gain characteristics of LLC series resonant converter. In this paper, DC gain characteristics and the experimental results of the LLC series resonant converter with a LLT transformer are verified on the Math-CAD simulation based on the theoretical analysis and the 600W experimental prototype.

In this paper, we propose a current-driven synchronous rectifier driver circuit for LLC resonant half-bridge converters. The proposed driver circuit detects a relatively low current in the primary side of the transformer although a large current is flowing in the secondary side. Due to this feature, the driver circuit has a simple circuit structure and stabilizes the switching operation with a logic-level switching voltages for the synchronous rectifier. The operation and performance of the proposed driver circuit are confirmed with a prototype of 1kW class LLC resonant half-bridge converter. The experimental results proved that the proposed synchronous rectifier driver method improves the power conversion efficiency by around 1% and reduces the internal power loss by 17W.

In this letter, a simple control method of the HB LLC converter with one additional switch and capacitor in the primary side is proposed for wide-input-voltage applications with the hold-up time conditions. At nominal input, since the proposed method enables the HB LLC converter to operate with large transformer magnetizing inductance, it can reduce the conduction and switch turn-off losses in the primary side, which makes a high efficiency. On the other hand, during the hold-up time, since the proposed method increases the resonant capacitance by turning on one additional switch, the HB LLC converter can obtain high voltage gain.

근래 사용되는 공진형 컨버터는 넓은 주파수대역에서의 ZVS 특성의 우수함으로 인해 많은 연구가 진행 중이다. LLC 공진형 컨버터 경우는 부하에 따른 전압전달비가 크게 변화하기 때문에 부하의 변화가 적은 분야에서 주로 사용되어왔다. 그 때문에 최근에는 LLC 공진형 컨버터를 넓은 부하범위에서도 이용할 수 있는 연구가 개발되고 있다. 하지만 LLC 공진 컨버터의 동작 조건에 따라 가변하는 방법이 넓은 부하 조건에 완벽하게 대응하기에는 어려운 면이 있다. 이 때문에 경부하 조건에서의 전압 변환율에 만족하기 위한 제어 방법을 제안한다.

This paper presents a DC/DC LLC resonant converter with wide input/output voltage gain characteristics and its control method for efficiency improvement. For a wide input/output voltage gain characteristics without designing small transformer magnetization inductance, the proposed converter changes the topology into three modes of operation according to the main switch switching pattern. In each operating mode, variable LINK voltage modulation and frequency modulation were performed to control output voltage and improve operating efficiency. A prototype of a 5-kW DC/DC LLC resonant converter was built and tested to verify the validity and applicability of the proposed converter.

This study proposes a feedforward compensation control method to reduce 120 Hz output voltage ripple in a single-phase AC/DC rectifier system composed of PFC and LLC resonant converters. The proposed method compensates for the voltage ripple of the DC-link by using the AC input and DC output power difference, and then reduces the final output voltage ripple component of 120 Hz through feedforward compensation based on the linearized frequency gain curve of the LLC resonant converter. Through simulation and experimental results, the validity of the ripple reduction performance was verified by comparing the conventional PI controller and the proposed feedforward compensation method.

This study proposes an LLC series resonant converter with a current doubler using a coupled inductor as a rectification circuit for the secondary side. The current doubler circuit is generally used for a high-voltage input and low-voltage output circuit to obtain high efficiency with small transformer turn ratio. However, an inductive circuit is not generally used in the secondary side of an LLC series resonant converter. If inductive components exist on the secondary side, the resonant characteristics are changed through the secondary inductive circuit. Mathematical analysis shows that the secondary-side current doubler with coupled inductor is not affected by the resonant characteristic of the primary LLC if leakage inductance occurs in the coupled inductor. Results of the analysis are proven by simulation; an experiment is also conducted for the proposed circuit.

A light emitting diodes(LED) lighting has been increasingly used due to its low power consumption, long life time, high efficiency, and environment friendly characteristics. Also various power converters has been applied to drive these LED lighting. Among many power converters, a LLC resonant converter could be applied for LED lighting because of its high efficiency and high power density. Furthermore, the function of power factor correction(PFC) might be added. In this paper, 1-stage asymmetrical LLC resonant converter is proposed. The proposed converter performs both input-current harmonics reduction and PFC using the discontinuous conduction mode(DCM). The proposed 1-stage LLC resonant converter approach has the lower voltage stress across switching devices and achieve the zero voltage switching(ZVS) in switching devices. To verify the performance of the proposed converter, simulation and experimental results from a 300[W] prototype are provided.
