This paper presents a new PFC control method which replaces a fast line current measurement with a filtered load current measurement. Using the power balance relation between the input and the output of the boost converter. the input current can be described as the function of load current. Thus the PWM signal which effects the switching control of the boost converter is generated using the PFC input voltage, the PFC output voltage and the load current as input variables. By using a filter between the bridge rectifier and a dc-to-dc converter, the input voltage of the dc-to-dc converter is forced to always maintain above zero volt. Then the input current traces a sinewave in phase. The proposed scheme accomplishes a very high power factor and a low harmonic distortion of the line current. The validity of this scheme is demonstrated through simulation.

Generally in solar air conditioning system, the diode rectifier is used to build up DC link voltage from AC source. The diode rectifier is simple and cheap but it brings out the problems of low power factor and plentiful harmonics at the AC source. Also It can degrade the utilization rate of solar energy because the reverse of power flow cannot be made. Hence, in this paper to overcome the peak power problems in summer and to endure good AC input characteristics, solar air conditioning system using the PWM converter is proposed. A high input power factor of 97[%] and an efficiency of 98[%] are also obtained. The harmonic guide lines of proposed rectifier is no interfered with inverter switching, resulting in a simple, reliable and low cost ac to dc converters in comparison with the boost type current improving circuits.

A new high efficiency and low profile on-board DC/DC converter for digital car audio amplifier is proposed. The proposed converter shows the continuous input current, no DC excitation current of the transformer, the minimized electro-magnetic interference (EMI), no output inductor, and the low voltage stress of the secondary rectifier diodes. The 60W industrial sample of the proposed converter is implemented for digital car audio amplifier and the measured efficiency is $88.3\%$ at nominal input voltage.

다이오드 정류회로의 전류 파형을 향상시키기 위해서 배전압 다이오드 정류회로에 대한 새로운 동작원리를 제안하였다. 기존의 배전압 정류회로는 대용량 캐패시터를 이용하여 출력전압을 높였으나 제안한 회로는 소용량의 캐패시터와 리액터를 이용하기 때문에 출력전압은 높아지지 않지만 입력전류의 파형을 개선할 수 있다. 그리고 역률과 효율이 각각 97[%], 98[%]을 얻을 수 있다. 제안한 정류기는 고조파 규제값과 스위치가 서로 영향을 미치지 않고 다이오드와 인덕터 그리고 콘덴서로 구성된 비선형 임피턴스 회로이다. 또한 일반적인 펄스 폭 변조 인버터와 하프 펄스 폭 변조 인버터를 비교하여 설명하였으며 제안된 하프 펄스 폭 변조 인버터에 의해서 낮은 스위칭 손실과 오버슈팅을 제어할 수 있다.

In this paper, we report the experimental results of the Forward-flyback DC-DC converter with current doubler and synchronous rectifier. The experimental converter, that has a output voltage 1.8V, output current 25A, maximum power of 45W, switching frequency of 290kHz and input voltage range of 36-75V, has been successfully implemented. As a result, in the entire voltage range the measured full load efficiency was above 82%, and the output voltage was regulated at 1.8V within ${\pm}$3% tolerance.

An interleaved bridgeless buck-boost AC/DC converter is presented in this paper to achieve the characteristics of low conduction loss, a high power factor and low harmonic and ripple currents. There are only two power semiconductors in the line current path instead of the three power semiconductors in a conventional boost AC/DC converter. A buck-boost converter operated in the boundary conduction mode (BCM) is adopted to control the active switches to achieve the following characteristics: no diode reverse recovery problem, zero current switching (ZCS) turn-off of the rectifier diodes, ZCS turn-on of the power switches, and a low DC bus voltage to reduce the voltage stress of the MOSFETs in the second DC/DC converter. Interleaved pulse-width modulation (PWM) is used to control the switches such that the input and output ripple currents are reduced such that the output capacitance can be reduced. The voltage doubler topology is adopted to double the output voltage in order to extend the useable energy of the capacitor when the line voltage is off. The circuit configuration, principle operation, system analysis, and a design example are discussed and presented in detail. Finally, experiments on a 500W prototype are provided to demonstrate the performance of the proposed converter.

Wind energy conversion systems (WECS) which consist of wind turbines with permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) and full-power converters have become widespread in the field of renewable power systems. Generally, conventional diode bridge rectifiers have used to obtain a constant DC bus voltage from output of PMSG based wind generator. In recent years, together advanced power electronics technology, Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) rectifiers have used in WECS. PWM rectifiers are used in many applications thanks to their characteristics such as high power factor and low harmonic distortion. In general, L, LC and LCL-type filter configurations are used in these rectifiers. These filter configurations are not exactly compensate current and voltage harmonics. This study proposes a hybrid passive filter configuration for PWM rectifiers instead of existing filters. The performance of hybrid passive filter was tested via MATLAB/Simulink environment under various operational conditions and was compared with LCL filter structure. In addition, neuro-fuzzy controller (NFC) was preferred to increase the performance of PWM rectifier in DC bus voltage control against disturbances because of its robust and nonlinear structure. The study demonstrates that the hybrid passive filter configuration proposed in this study successfully compensates current and voltage harmonics, and improves total harmonic distortion and true power factor.

NESCR 구조의 정전기 보호소자가 고전압 동작용 I/O 응용을 위해 분석되었다. 기존의 NESCR 표준소자는 매우 낮은 스냅백 홀딩 전압을 갖는 전형적인 SCR 특성을 나타내므로 정상적인 동작 동안 래치업 문제를 초래한다. 그러나 본 연구에서 제안하는 CPS 및 부분적으로 형성된 P-well 구조를 갖는 NESCR_CPS_PPW 변형소자는 높은 온-저항과 스냅백 홀딩 전압을 나타내어 래치업 면역 능력을 향상시킬 수 있었다.

An interleaved single-stage AC/DC converter with a boost converter and an asymmetrical half-bridge topology is presented to achieve power factor correction, zero voltage switching (ZVS) and load voltage regulation. Asymmetric pulse-width modulation (PWM) is adopted to achieve ZVS turn-on for all of the switches and to increase circuit efficiency. Two ZVS half-bridge converters with interleaved PWM are connected in parallel to reduce the ripple current at input and output sides, to control the output voltage at a desired value and to achieve load current sharing. A center-tapped rectifier is adopted at the secondary side of the transformers to achieve full-wave rectification. The boost converter is operated in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) to automatically draw a sinusoidal line current from an AC source with a high power factor and a low current distortion. Finally, a 240W converter with the proposed topology has been implemented to verify the performance and feasibility of the proposed converter.

대용량 전원장치의 정류기는 입력전류의 고조파를 줄이기 위해, 입력 전류 제어기능을 갖는 3상 PWM 정류기의 적용이 확대되고 있다. 3상 PWM 정류기의 전압제어기는 일반적으로 PI 제어기가 사용되며, 출력 전압의 안정성을 얻고 신뢰성을 확보하기 위하여 전압 제어기는 출력전압의 과도상태에서 오버슈트(Overshoot)를 작게 설계한다. 그러나 부하 변동이 급격한 대용량 통신용 전원 장치에 3상 PWM 정류기가 적용될 경우 빠른 부하 변동에 대한 안정적 전압 응답을 얻기 위하여 보다 넓은 대역폭을 갖도록 전압 제어기를 설계할 필요가 있다. 넓은 대역폭을 갖는 PI 제어기는 과도한 출력전압의 오버슈트가 발생될 수 있으며, 이 과도한 출력전압 오버슈트는 통신용 전원의 안정성을 해칠 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 과도 상태에서 출력전압의 오버슈트를 작게 하기 위하여 IP 제어기를 갖는 3상 PWM 정류기의 전압 제어기를 제안한다. 제안된 전압 제어기는 3상 PWM 정류기의 기동 시와 부하 변동시의 과도 응답특성을 개선될 수 있음을 시뮬레이션 및 실험을 통해 확인하였다.
