This paper presents a novel single-stage high frequency resonant DC-DC converter using zero voltage switching with high input power factor. The proposed high frequency resonant converter integrates half-bridge boost rectifier as power factor corrector (PFC) and half-bridge resonant converter into a single stage. The input stage of the half-bridge boost rectifier is working in discontinuous conduction mode(DCM) with constant duty cycle and variable switching frequency. So that a high power factor is achieved naturally. Simulation results through the Pspice have demonstrated the feasibility of the Proposed DC-DC converter. This proposed converter will be able to be practically used as a power supply in various fields as induction heating applications, DC-DC converter etc.

기존의 LCD-TV의 백라이트 모듈로 사용되는 CCFL(Cold Cathode fluorescent Lamp:냉 음극형 형광램프)을 구동 하는 인버터 회로는 3단으로 구성되어 전체 시스템의 효율저하 문제가 발생한다. 본 논문에서 제안된 회로는 DC/DC단을 사용하지 않아 전체 시스템의 효율을 향상 시킬 수 있다. 역률 개선을 위한 PFC(Power Factor Corrector)단의 출력 전압을 인버터의 입력전압으로 사용하여 CCFL을 구동한다. 인버터에서는 4-in-1트랜스포머를 사용하여 CCFL간의 전류평형 및 동시점등을 이룰 수 있으며, 전류평형을 위한 부가회로가 불필요하다. 인버터 시스템을 2단으로 구성하여 회로구성이 간소화되고 회로의 부피 및 제작 원가를 저감 할 수 있다. 제안된 기준에 따라 설계한 인버터를 40인치 LCD-TV용 백라이트 모듈에 적용한 실험결과를 통해 유용성을 검증한다.

This paper describes a comparative analysis of soft switching boost converters through design, production and experiment. Soft switching boost converters are designed to satisfy the condition of input voltage 170-265Vac, output voltage 400Vdc, output current 5A, output power 20W-2000W and unit power factor. In addition, parameter values are designed so that system operation can be compared under this is similar conditions. The efficiency of the combined inductor soft switching boost converter was 97.63% with 1011 load better than that of other boost converter types. The combined inductor soft switching converter has simple circuit construction and low switching loss. EMI resulted by the switching noise, and harmonic distortion.

The proposed method offers an improved control method for high power density AC/DC adapter by using more energy efficient electrical equipments. Power factor corrector (PFC) topology is based on boost topology with boundary conduction mode (BCM). DC/DC topology is based on half-bridge topology with newly introduced off-time control method, which helps to reduce size of the semiconductor and the magnetic devices. Test results with 85W AC/DC adapter (18.5V/4.6A) design shows that the measured efficiency is 90% with power density of $36W/in^3$. It also show low no load power consumption of about 0.5W.
