종래의 충전기 및 통신용 전원장치에 있어서 입력 역률을 개선시키기 위해 고 역률 컨버터(Power Factor Correction Circuit)가 제안되어 적용되고 있고, 이들 대부분 회로는 Hard Switching을 이용한 정류회로로, 입력역률 1제어와 입력전류를 정현파형을 만들 수 있지만 Switching Noise에 의한 전자파장해(EMI)와 스위칭손실 등의 문제를 안고 있다. 또한, 절연된 DC 출력전압을 얻기 위해서는 고 역률 컨버터 후단에 절연된 DC/DC 컨버터가 적용되어야 함으로써, 주 회로 및 제어회로가 다단으로 구성되는 등 복잡화되는 단점이 있었다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위해 역률보정회로(PFC)를 갖는 절연된 Single Stage 무손실 스너버적용 고주파 소프트 스위칭 컨버터를 제안하고자 한다.

This study proposes a dual-output single-stage bridgeless single-ended primary-inductor converter (DOSSBS) that can completely remove the front-end full-bridge alternating current-direct current rectifier to accomplish power factor correction for universal line input. Without the need for bridge diodes, the proposed converter has the advantages of low component count and simple structure, and can thus significantly reduce power loss. DOSSBS has two uncommon output ports to provide different voltage levels to loads, instead of using two separate power factor correctors or multi-stage configurations in a single stage. Therefore, this proposed converter is cost-effective and compact. A magnetically coupled inductor is introduced in DOSSBS to replace two separate inductors to decrease volume and cost. Energy stored in the leakage inductance of the coupled inductor can be completely recycled. In each line cycle, the two active switches in DOSSBS are operated in either high-frequency pulse-width modulation pattern or low-frequency rectifying mode for switching loss reduction. A prototype for dealing with an $85-265V_{rms}$ universal line is designed, analyzed, and built. Practical measurements demonstrate the feasibility and functionality of the proposed converter.

A novel voltage-fed single-stage power factor correction (PFC) full-bridge converter based on asymmetric phase-shifted control for battery chargers is proposed in this paper. The attractive feature of the proposed converter is that it can operate in a wide output voltage range without an output low-frequency ripple, which is indispensable in battery charger applications. Meanwhile, the converter can maintain a high power factor and a controllable dc bus voltage over a wide output voltage range. In this paper, the realization of PFC and the operation principle of asymmetric phase-shifted control are given. A small-signal analysis of the proposed single-stage power factor correction (PFC) full-bridge converter is performed. Experimental results obtained from a 1kW experimental prototype are given to validate the feasibility of the proposed converter. The PF is higher than 0.97 over the entire output voltage range with the proposed control strategy.

This paper proposes a three-phase single-stage AC-DC converter for the small wind generation system. Input power factor improvement and insulated output can be implemented with the proposed three-phase single-stage AC-DC converter under the wide power generation voltage (80-260 V_ac) and frequency (10-42 Hz) in a small wind power generation (WPG) system. The proposed converter is also capable of zero-voltage switching in the primary-side switches and zero-current switching in the secondary-side diodes by phase-shift control at a fixed switching frequency. In addition, it is possible to control a wide output voltage (V_o: 39 V_DC-60 V_DC) by varying the link voltage and improving the input power factor (PF) and the total harmonic distortion factor (THD_i). Simulation and experimental results verified the validity of the proposed converter.

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.

A conventional Single-Stage Power-Factor-Correction (PFC) AC/DC converter has a link capacitor voltage problem under high line input and low load conditions. In this paper, this problem is analyzed by using the voltage conversion ratio of the DC/DC conversion cell. By applying this analysis, a new Single-Stage PFC AC/DC converter with a boost PFC cell integrated with a Voltage-Doubler Rectified Asymmetrical Half-Bridge (VDRAHB) is proposed. The proposed converter features good power factor correction, low current harmonic distortions, tight output regulations and low voltage of the link capacitor. An 85W prototype was implemented to show that it meets harmonic requirements and standards satisfactorily with near unity power factor and high efficiency over universal input.

This paper describes analysis and calculation of line frequency ripple current according to output capacitor value and effects of LED connection in the single stage flyback converter with high power factor. The low frequency output ripple current delivered from single stage converter has been analyzed in detail and the method evaluating parasitic resistance included in LED has been provided. In order to verify the equation derived in this paper, the single stage flyback converter has been designed with constant output current regulation with DCM operation. Experiments were conducted with different LED load structures to analyze the effect of LED parasitic resistance on output ripple current. As test results, the calculation can provide guide line to select capacitor values depending on output ripple current and LED characteristics.

This study proposes a small-signal model and control design for a two-stage DC-DC-AC converter to investigate its dynamic characteristics in relation to battery energy storage system. When the circuit analysis of the two-stage DC-DC-AC converter is attempted simultaneously, the mathematical procedure of deriving the dynamic equation is complex and difficult. The main idea of modeling the two-stage DC-DC-AC converter states that this topology is separated into a bidirectional DC-DC converter and a single-phase inverter with an equivalent current source corresponding to that of the inverter or converter. The dynamic equations for the separated converter and inverter are then derived using the state-space averaging technique. The procedures of building the small-signal model of the two-stage DC-DC-AC converter are described in detail. Based on the derived small-signal model, the individual controllers are designed through a frequency-domain analysis. The simulation and experimental results verify the validity of the proposed modeling approach and controller design.
