Recently, the three phase AC to DC boost converter has become one of the most widely used power converters as DC power source in the industry applications. In this paepr, a three phase PWM AC toDC boost converter that operates with unity power factor and sinusodial input currents is presented. The current control of the converter is based onthe predicted current control strategy with fixed switching frequency and the input current tracks the reference cuent within one sampling time interval. Therefore, by using this control strategy low ripples in the output voltage, low harmonics in the input current and fast dynamic responses are achieved with a small capacitance in the DC link.

This paper proposes a fuzzy logic controlled new topology of high voltage gain zero voltage switching (ZVS) asymmetrical PWM full-bridge DC-DC boost converter for constant load and high power applications. The APWM full-bridge stage provides high voltage gain and soft-switching characteristics increase the efficiency and reduce the switching losses. Fuzzy logic controller (FLC) improves the performance and dynamic characteristics of the proposed converter. A comparison with a classical proportional-integral (PI) controller demonstrates the high performances of the proposed technique in terms of effective output voltage regulation under different operating conditions. Simulation is done by integrating two different simulation platforms $PSIM^{(R)}$ and $Matlab^{(R)}/Simulink^{(R)}$ by using SimCoupler tool of $PSIM^{(R)}$. Experimental results using 120W load have been provided to validate the results.

This paper introduces a ZC-ZVS PWM(Pulse-Width -Modulation) boost converter. The IGBT(main switch) of the proposed converter is always switched at ZCS and soft switching of MOSFET(auxiliary switch) as well. Therefore, the proposed converter minimized the turn on/turn off switching losses of switches and reduced conduction losses by using IGBT switch. Moreover, using paralleled IGBT-MOSFET switch overcame the switching frequency limitation. Therefore high power density system can be realized. As mentioned above, the characteristics are verified through experimental results.

A new ZVS-CV PWM converter with power factor correction (PFC) function is presented in this paper. The new topology is a integration of a boost converter and a ZVS-CV topology in a single power conversion stage. The new converter can be regulated in pulse-width modulation (PWM) by universal integrated control circuits. Some design considerations are given in detail. A laboratory prototype has been implemented to show the feasibility of the approach and the analysis.

본 논문에서는 스마트기기의 배터리를 전원으로 갖는 12 V 승압형 PWM 변환기를 설계하고 컨버터를 구성하는 각 소자들의 손실을 계산하여 가장 안정적인 동작을 하는 설계 값을 도출하였다. 12 V 승압형 PWM 변환기는 저항, 커패시터 및 인덕터 등의 여러 수동소자를 비롯하여, 다이오드, 전력 스위치용 파워 MOS 트랜지스터와 PWM 신호제어를 위한 IC를 사용하여 구현하였다. 컨버터를 구성하는 주요 소자들의 이론적인 계산 값과 회로설계 해석프로그램인 PSPICE를 사용한 시뮬레이션 결과를 비교하고 각 소자 값들을 변화시키며 결과 파형을 분석한다. 분석한 컨버터를 실제 PCB 보드에 구성하고 디지털 오실로스코프와 DMM 멀티미터를 사용하여 측정하였고, SPICE 시뮬레이션을 통해 얻은 결과 값과 비교하였다. 설계한 컨버터에서 사용한 제어용 IC 칩은 TI(텍사스 인스트루먼트) 사의 LM3481을 사용하여 설계를 구현하였고, 5V 입력, 12V의 출력 값을 가지는 것을 확인하였다. 모의실험과 동일한 조건에서 출력전압, 리플전압 및 부하, 입력전압 변도율 등의 특성에 대한 측정결과는 SPICE 시뮬레이션 결과와 일치하는 것을 확인하였다.

This paper presents a high efficiency coupled inductor boost DC-DC converter that uses a simple clamp circuit and the coupled inductor and thus overcomes output voltage limit of the conventional boost converter. The proposed converter solves problems of voltage stress of the power semiconductor switch and reverse recovery of the output diode using a simple clamp circuit composed of a diode and a capacitor, and thus the converter improves its total efficiency. In this paper, the operational principle of the proposed converter is explained by each mode and then a design example for the prototype converter based on the explanation is shown. And good performance of the proposed converter is verified through experimental results of the prototype converter that is implemented with the designed circuit parameters.

Recently DC-DC converters significantly increase the total losses as rising switching frequency. Traditional soft switching technique for reducing switching losses even increase voltage/current stress of switch. In this paper Resonant circuit for soft switching is connected in parallel with power stage and only operates just before turn-on of the main operates just before turn-on of the main switch, Therefore This doesn't affect the total circuit operation. ZNT-PWM converter designed with 170-260V input 4--V 5A output and 100kHz switching frequency is tested respectively with 500W. 1kW, 1.5kW, and 2kW loads.

A pulse width modulation-voltage source inverter (PWM-VSI) is used for variable speed permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drives. The PWM-VSI fed PMSM has two major disadvantages. Firstly, the PWM-VSI DC-link voltage limits the magnitude of the PMSM terminal voltage. As a result, the motor speed is restricted. Secondly, in a low speed range, the PWM-VSI modulation index declines. This is caused by a high DC-link voltage and a low terminal voltage ratio. As a result, the distortion of the voltage command and the stator current are increased. This paper proposes an optimal pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) control which can adjust the inverter DC-link voltage by using a buck-boost DC-DC converter. At a low speed range, the proposed system can reduce the distortion of the voltage command, which improves the stator current waveform. Also, the allowable speed range is extended. In order to verify the proposed method, experimental results are provided to confirm the simulation results.

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.
