본 논문에서는 고역률을 가지고 영전압 스위칭으로 동작되는 새로운 단일 전력단 고주파 공진 인버터 링크형 DC-DC 컨버터 회로에 관하여 기술하고 있다. 제안된 토폴로지는 역률 교정기로써 하프 브리지형 부스트 컨버터와 하프 브리지 고주파 공진 컨버터를 단일 전력단으로 일체화 시켰다. 역률 보상용 부스트 컨버터의 부스트 인덕터 전류를 가변 스위칭 주파수와 일정 듀티비를 가지고 불연속 전류 모드(DCM)로 동작시킴으로써 부가적인 입력 전류제어기 없이 높은 입력 역률을 얻을 수 있다. 또 제안한 토폴로지의 이론해석을 무차원화 파라미터를 도입하여 범용성 있게 하여 회로 설계 전단계에서 필요한 특성값을 도식적으로 표현하다. 첨가해, 제안한 토폴로지의 상용화 가능성과 이론해석의 정당성을 입증하기 위해 스위칭 소자로 Power-MOSFET IRF 740을 제안회로 토폴로지의 스위칭 소자로 채용해 실험 장치를 구성하여 검토를 행하였다. 제안된 컨버터는 향후 통신용 DC/DC 컨버터의 전원장치, 방전등용 진원장치 등의 전원시스템에 유용히 사용될 것으로 사료된다.

Zero-voltage and zero-current switched single-stage approach with high power factor is presented to reduce the switching losses and to achieve sinusoidal, unity power factor input currents. This single-stage approach, which combines a boost converter used as PFC with a half-bridge converter used as do to do conversion into one power stage, has a simple structure and low cost. At the same time, since the switches of the proposed converter are designed to be turned on at zero-voltage and off at zero-current, the switching losses could be reduced considerably. Detailed analysis and experimental results are presented on the proposed converter, which is operated at constant switching frequency and in discontinuous conduction mode.

We address the problematic issue of blinking in residential LED lighting systems-a phenomenon that has recently become a significant concern due to voltage sags caused by high-power household appliances. To combat this, we developed a two-stage LED converter with integrated anti-blinking circuitry, specifically designed for T5 LED indirect lighting fixtures. The first stage employs a Power Factor Correction (PFC) boost circuit to enhance voltage stability by aligning the voltage and current phases, thereby minimizing power losses. The second stage, a meticulously engineered DC-DC buck converter, ensures stable lighting despite electrical fluctuations. Rigorous testing has confirmed our converter's efficacy in maintaining consistent light output without blinking, thereby substantially improving user comfort and adhering to strict standards for harmonic distortion and electromagnetic compatibility. Our breakthrough provides a robust solution to a pressing issue, marking a significant advancement in LED lighting technology.

This paper presents a novel single-stage active-clamp type high frequency resonant inverter. The proposed topology is integrated full-bridge boost rectifier as power factor corrector and active-clamp type high frequency resonant inverter into a single-stage. The input stage of the full-bridge boost rectifier works in discontinuous conduction mode(DCM) with constant duty cycle and variable switching frequency. So that a boost converter makes the line current follow naturally the sinusoidal line voltage waveform. By adding additional active-clamp circuit to conventional class-E high frequency resonant inverter, main switch of inverter part operates not only at Zero-Voltage-Switching mode but also reduces the switching voltage stress of main switch. Simulation results have demonstrated the feasibility of the proposed high frequency resonant inverter. Characteristics values based on characteristics estimation through circuit analysis is given as basis data in design procedure. Also, experimental results are presented to verify theoretical discussion. This proposed inverter will be able to be practically used as a power supply in the fields of induction heating applications, fluorescent lamp and DC-DC converter etc.

A novel zero-voltage-switching(ZVS) isolated PWM converter for single stage power factor correction (PFC) is presented to improve the performance of the previously presented ZVT converter[5]. A simple clamp circuit in the primary side provides zero-voltage-switching condition to all semiconductor devices. This ZVS is achieved with minimum device voltage and current stresses. Operation principle, control strategy and features of the proposed converter are presented and verified by the experimental results from a 1.5 ㎾, 100 KHz laboratory prototype

This paper proposes a new single-stage, single-switch AC/DC converter based on the boost power factor correction (PFC) cell. The converter offers both high power factor and high efficiency. To reduce the dc voltage on the energy storage capacitor, the dc bus voltage feedback method was used. A 100W (5V/20A) prototype was built and tested to show the validity of the proposed converter.

This study presents a single-phase single-stage three-level AC/DC converter with a wide controllable output voltage. The proposed AC/DC converter is designed to extend the application of e-mobility, such as electric vehicles. The single-stage converter integrates a PFC converter and a three-level DC/DC converter, operates at a fixed frequency, and provides a wide controllable output voltage (approximately 200-430Vdc) with high efficiencies over a wide load range. In addition, the input boost inductors operate in a discontinuous mode to improve the input power factor. The switching devices operate with ZVS, and the converter's THD is small, especially at full load. The feasibility of the proposed converter is verified by the experimental results of a 1.5 kW prototype.

본 논문에서는 영전압 스위칭을 하고 브리지가 없는 부스트 역률 보상 회로를 제안한다. 제안하는 회로에서는 브리지 다이오드를 제거하여 도통 손실을 줄일 수 있다. 게다가, 스위치 내부 다이오드의 역회복 전류 문제를 줄여주고 스위치가 영전압 스위칭을 하므로 스위칭 손실을 크게 줄일 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 제안하는 회로의 이론적 해석 및 설계방법을 설명하고 실험결과를 통해 회로의 동작을 검증한다.
