This paper aims to develop an SMPS topology for handling a high range of input voltages based on a DC-DC flyback converter circuit. For this purpose, 2 capacitors of the same specifications were serially connected on the input terminal side, with a flyback converter of the same circuit configuration serially connected to each of them, so as to achieve high input voltage and an effect of dividing input voltage. The serially connected flyback converters have the transformer turn ratio of 1:1, so that each coil is used for the winding of a single transformer, which is a characteristic of doubly-fed configuration and enables the correction of input capacitor voltage imbalance. In addition, a pulse transformer was designed and fabricated in a way that can achieve the isolation and noise robustness of the PWM output signal of the PWM controller that applies gate voltage to individual flyback converter switches. PSIM simulation was carried out to verify such a structure and confirm its feasibility, and a 100W class stack was fabricated and used to verify the feasibility of the proposed high voltage SMPS topology.

The leakage inductance of the High frequency Transformer(HFT) in the flyback topology can be used an inductor of the Low Pass Filter(LPF) to reduce ripple and ripple noise in the output voltage. But, the values of leakage inductance and magnetizing inductance in the HFT are within $\pm20[{\%}]$). And the operating temperature of the HFT increased by the leakage inductance. Therefore, the leakage inductance of the HFT in the flyback topology has minimum and the LPF has non-polarity ceramic capacitor in the output stage. In this paper, the LPF in the flyback topoBogy takes PCB capacitor using double layer of PCB without non-polarity ceramic capacitor. Its experimental results show the reduced ripple noise and the reduced ripple in the output stage.

Scribing the transparent conductive oxide(TCO) is an essential technology for the large scaled dye-sensitized solar cell(DSC) and the commercialization of the DSC. Laser systems are most used for scribing technology due to their precision. However, it is difficult to generalize systems because most systems are large and heavy. In this study, we tried to simplificate the Nd:YAG laser system for scribing TCO of the DSC by using switched mode power supply(SMPS) technique. The continuous conduction mode booster converter topology is applied and MC34262 power factor controller is used for the variable frequency control. Finally, SMPS circuit which specifications are 400W of capacity, 400V DC output and 98% of efficiency is fabricated. And it is demonstrated that the scribing TCO is completed by the Nd:YAG laser using this SMPS circuit.

Distributed resources such as renewable energy sources and ESS are connected to the low voltage direct current(LVDC) distribution network through the power conversion system(PCS). Control power is required for the operation of the PCS. In general, controller power is supplied from AC power or DC power through switch mode power supply(SMPS). However, the conventional SMPS has a low input voltage, so development and research on high input voltage self-power suitable for LVDC is insufficient. In this paper, to develop Self-Power that can be used for LVDC, the characteristics of the conventional topology are analyzed, and a series-input single-output flyback converter using a flux-sharing transformer for high voltage is designed. The high input voltage Self-Power was designed in the DCM(discontinuous current mode) to reduce the switching loss and solve the problem of current dissipation. In addition, since it operates even at low input voltage, it can be applied to many applications as well as LVDC. The validity of the proposed high input voltage self-power is verified through experiments.

A new ZVT PFC for using 3[KW] power amplifier is proposed. Generally, the single phase diode rectifier has been widely used in the SMPS of the conventional power amplifier. But this rectifier has occurred some problems which are the input power factor and current harmonics. To solve the above problems, in this paper, two topology is adopted. The one is the boost type PFC for improving the input power factor. The other is the ZVT resonant circuit for reducing the switching loss and stress. In this paper, the proposed topology is analyze designed to built the ZVT PFC for using 3[KW] power amplifier. In order to verify the circuit va finally, the PSPICE simulation and experiment results are presented.

The trend of the regulations on environmental issues are getting tight. Responding to this trend new technologies such as moving electrodes, wide pitch and pulsed power supply are also introduced in the electrostatic precipitator(EP) systems. The introduction of wide pitch and moving electrodes enhances the system performance of the EPs by improving air-flow and by improving the ash reentrainment on rapping. The power supplies for the EPs developed up to date include thyristor-based dc or intermittent type, SMPS(switching mode power supply) type and the pulsed-power supply type. The use of the pulsed ones is known to improve dust-collecting efficiency of high resistivity ash and reduces back corona occurrence in the collecting plate. There are two kinds of pulsed-power supplies; one with pulsed transformers and the other with direct dc switching devices. The latter uses rotary spark gap switches or semiconductor switches. Both have the merits and demerits: the spark gap switches are simple and robust but has short life time, hence, high maintenance cost, whereas the semiconductor switches have long life time but are costly. In this study, A high voltage power supply with superimposing voltage pulse on dc source was developed for EPs. This study describes circuit topology, operating principle of the scheme, and analysis of experimental results on Dong-Hae Power Plant. The pulsed power supply consists of a variable dc power supply with ratings of 60kV, 800mA and pulse generator which is made of high voltage thyristor-diode switch strings, an LC resonant tank and a blocking inductor. The pulse generator generates variable pulse-voltage up to 70kV using a high frequency resonant inverter with a variable dc source. Two prototypes were built and tested on 250MW DongHae power plant to verify the possibility of the commercial use and the normal operation in the transient states.

Currently, due to the rapid increase in power demand and the increase in capacity of power converters, the capacity of electromagnetic contactors is also increasing, and the burden on SMPS for the power that can drive them is increasing. Although the initial starting operation current of an electromagnetic contactor is significantly larger than the holding current for maintaining contact, most electromagnetic contactors apply the same voltage as the initial starting operation. An electromagnetic contactor must continuously apply a holding current to maintain the contact point, and the larger the capacity, the larger the current must be applied. This paper proposes a two-level magnetic contactor drive that allows setting the initial starting operation current to fully attach the contact point of the magnetic contactor and the holding current to maintain subsequent operation. In addition, a low-cost drive topology of analog and digital methods was proposed for various field applications, and an algorithm based on the ripple of the excitation current was proposed to determine whether the magnetic contactor was opened or closed without using a separate contact point. The feasibility of the proposed method was proven through Psim simulation experiments.
