This paper presents a new structure of single-stage flyback power factor correction (PFC) converter with a controllable coupled negative magnetic feedback (NMF) winding. NMF winding is used to reduce the bulk capacitor voltage at high line voltages and light loads. However, it would cause line current distortion at zero crossing condition. In the proposed circuit, a series winding is used with NMF inductor to eliminate the NMF inductor at low line voltages. As a result, the dead angle of the input current, near zero voltage crossing, is eliminated and the power factor is increased. The presented experimental results of the proposed PFC converter confirm the integrity of the new idea and the theoretical analysis.

This paper proposes a primary side constant power control scheme for TRIAC dimmer compatible LED drivers. The LED driver is a Flyback converter operated in boundary conduction mode (BCM) to minimize the switching loss. With the proposed control scheme, the input power of the Flyback converter can be controlled by the TRIAC dimming angle, which is not affected by AC input voltage variations. Since the output voltage is almost constant for LED loads, the output current can be changed by controlling the input power with a given conversion efficiency. The isolated feedback circuit is eliminated with the proposed primary side control scheme, which dramatically simplifies the whole circuit. In addition, the input current automatically follows the input voltage due to the BCM operation, and the resistive input characteristic can be achieved which is attractive for TRIAC dimming applications. Experimental results from a 15W prototype verify the theoretical analysis.

본 논문은 조명용 LED 구동 장치를 위한 새로운 방식의 Two-stage LED 구동 회로를 제안한다. 제안된 회로는 PFC flyback 회로의 다중 출력을 이용하여 LED 양단에 전압을 인가하여 LED 구동 회로의 출력 전압을 획기적으로 낮출 수 있어 LED 구동 회로에 사용되는 반도체 소자의 전압 스트레스를 크게 줄일 수 있다. 제안된 회로는Universal input에서 25 [W] 이상 조명 장치에 적용되는 IEC 61000-3-2 class C 규제를 만족하고, PWM 디밍을 사용하여 넓은 범위의 휘도 조절이 가능하다. 본 논문에서는 제안 회로의 동작 원리를 설명하고, 시뮬레이션 및 LED에 실제 적용 실험하여 제안 회로의 유용성을 입증하였다.

최근에, 전원 공급 장치에 있어서 파워의 품질에 대한 요구가 높아지고 있다. IEC 61000-3-2 규격은 조명을 위한 AC/DC 전원 공급 장치에 대하여 역률(PF)과 전체 파형 왜곡률(THD)에 대한 규격을 만족하도록 요구하고 있다. 또 출력단의 전류 변화에 의해 발광체 광량이 바뀜에 따라 발생되는 플리커 현상에 대해 유럽권 선진국가는 ripple rate의 기준을 15~30%로 설정해 규제하고 있다. 따라서 국내에서도 기준을 마련하고 규제를 추진 중에 있다. 그래서 본 논문은 PFC 규격을 만족하고, 회로 1차, 2차 간 절연 기능을 가지기 위해 Flyback 컨버터를 적용하며, LED 전류의 저주파 리플을 저감하기 위해 Flyback, Coupled Inductor, LC 병렬 공진 필터, LLC 공진 필터, Cuk을 이용한 각각의 LED 구동회로를 PSIM을 통해 시뮬레이션 함으로써 각각의 방식들을 비교하였으며, 출력측 리플 저감을 위해 1차측에 Coupled Inductor와 2차측에 LC 공진을 적용한 Coupled LC 공진 회로를 제안하였으며, Coupled LC 공진 방식은 출력 커패시터가 78uF으로 작으며, 출력 리플은 전압 2.38V, 전류 0.05A로 기존의 방식보다 22%의 출력 리플 저감을 확인 하였다.

Conventional Switched Mode Power Supplies(SMPS) with diode-capacitor rectifier have distorted input current waveform with high harmonic order contents. Typically, these SMPS have a power factor lower than 0,7. To improve with this problem the power factor correction(PFC) circuit of power supplies has to be introduced. Specially, to the reduce size and manufacture cost of power conversion device, the single-stage PFC converter is increased to demand as necessary of study. In this paper, comparative analysis of Valley-fill, boost and feedforward type single stage power factor correction circuit based on the flyback converter is given. Also, the validity of designed three type of single stage PFC circuit are confirmed by simulation and experimental results.

This paper presents an IHQRR (Integrated High Quality Rectifier Regulator) BIFRED (Boost Integrated Flyback Rectifier Energy Storage DC-DC) converter fed BLDC (Brushless DC) motor drive. A reduced sensor topology is derived by utilizing a BIFRED converter to operate in a dual DCM (Discontinuous Conduction Mode) thus utilizing a voltage follower approach for the PFC (Power Factor Correction) and voltage control. A new approach for speed control is proposed using a single voltage sensor. The speed of the BLDC motor drive is controlled by varying the DC link voltage of the front end converter. Moreover, fundamental frequency switching of the VSI's (Voltage Source Inverter) switches is used for the electronic commutation of the BLDC motor which reduces the switching losses in the VSI. The proposed drive is designed for a wide range of speed control with an improved power quality at the AC mains which falls within the recommended limits imposed by international power quality standards such as IEC 61000-3-2.

An interleaved single-stage power-factor-correction (PFC) AC/DC converter is presented in this paper. The proposed converter is combined by two single-stage AC/DC converters based on flyback converter Each PFC stage operates in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). By exploiting the interleaving technique, the input ripple current and output ripple voltage are reduced. The proposed converter complied with EN/1EC61000-3-2 harmonic regulations achieves high efficiency and low cost. The performance of the proposed converter was evaluated on a 180W $(90W\times2,\;24V,\;7.5A)$ experimental prototype.

In order to reduce the overall size and cost, researchers attempted to integrate the functions of power factor correction(PFC) and isolated dc-dc conversion into single power stage. However, single-stage isolated PFC converters have higher voltage stress and heavier loss when compared with a normal dc-dc converters. In this paper, we propose to add active clamping circuit to keep the switch voltage stress low and to achieve soft switching of electronic devices.

Generally, previous converter is divided into two categories to get high power factor and good output regulation. These two categories can be combined a category with a main switch. These converter is called Single Stage PFC Converter. This approach has good electrical characteristics of high power factor and fast output voltage regulation. The cost and size are important factor to design the converter in low power system. Even single stage can reduce the size and cost, but this approach needs to have additional circuit like control, PWM circuit. To improve these demerits, Top switch is one of good choice In reduce and size in low power single stage converter. Because it has the ability of current limit, thermal protection, oscillator, control circuit as well as a main switch ability.
