  • This paper describes novel low-power high-speed flip-flop called dual edge-triggered NAND keeper flip-flop (DETNKFF). The flip-flop achieves substantial power reduction by incorporating dual edge-triggered operation and by eliminating redundant transitions. It also minimizes the data-to-output latency by reducing the height of transistor stack on the critical path. Moreover, DETNKFF allows negative setup time to provide useful attribute of soft clock edge by incorporating the pulse-triggered operation. The proposed flip-flop was designed using a $0.35{\;}\mutextrm{m}$ CMOS technology. The simulation results indicate that, for the typical input switching activity of 0.3, DETNKFF reduces power consumption by as much as 21 %. Latency is also improved by about 6 % as compared to the conventional flip-flop. The improvement of power-delay product is also as much as 25 %.

  • This paper proposed a partial resonant switching three-phase high power factor converter using a $PRS^2$(Partial Resonant Soft Switch). The proposed converter has a merit of simple controlled circuit because the input current control DCM(Discontinuous Conduction Mode). And it is improve to input power factor that the snubber capacitor's energy regenerate to the AC source side. This topology is reduced a current/voltage stresses of resonant devices in addition to a partial resonant strategy. The result of simulations with the proposed topology included in this paper.

  • A new active lossless snubber for half-bridge dual converter(that is called 'dual converter') is proposed in this paper. It features soft switching(ZVS) as well as turn-off snubbing in both main and auxiliary switches. As it uses parasitic components, such as leakage inductances and switch output capacitances etc, it helps the dual converter to operate at the higher frequency with a higher efficiency and smaller size reactive components. The operational principle, theoretical analysis, and design consideration are presented. To confirm the operation, features and validity of the proposed circuit, simulated results from an 1kW, 24V/DC-250V/DC are presented.

  • In this paper, an improved full wave mode ZVT-PWM DC-DC Converter is presented to maximize the regeneration ratio of resonant energy by only putting an additional diode in series with auxiliary switch. The operation of auxiliary switch in a half wave mode makes possible the soft switching condition of all switches. Furthermore, the increase of the regeneration ratio to resonant energy results in low conduction losses and minimum voltage and current stresses. The operation principles of the proposed converters are analyzed using the PWM boost converter topology as an example. Theoretically analysis and experimental results verify the validity of the boost converter topology with the proposed full wave mode ZVT-PWM converters
