This paper proposes a zero-voltage-transition pulse-width modulation (PWM) DC-DC converter that uses a new active-snubber-cell. The converter main switch can be turned on and off with ZVS, while the snubber switch is turned on with ZCS and turned off with ZVS. Other semiconductor devices are operated under the soft-switching condition. Normal PWM control can be used, the proposed active-snubber-cell does not impose any additional voltage and current stresses. The active-snubber-cell is suitable for high-power applications due to its easy integration into interleaved converters. This paper discusses the operation of the converter, presents some design guidelines, and provides the results of an experiment with a 100 kHz and 1 kW prototype. A peak efficiency of 97.8% is recorded.

This paper presents a model predictive control for shunt active power filters in synchronous reference frame using space vector pulse-width modulation (SVPWM). The three phase load currents are transformed into synchronous rotating reference frame in order to reduce the order of the control system. The proposed current controller calculates reference current command for harmonic current components in synchronous frame. The fundamental load current components are transformed into dc components revealing only the harmonics. The predictive current controller will add robustness and fast compensation to generate commands to the SVPWM which minimizes switching frequency while maintaining fast harmonic compensation. By using the model predictive control, the optimal switching state to be applied to the next sampling time is selected. The filter current contains only the harmonic components, which are the reference compensating currents. In this method the supply current will be equal to the fundamental component of load current and a part of the current at fundamental frequency for losses of the inverter. Mathematical analysis and the feasibility of the suggested approach are verified through simulation results under steady state and transient conditions for non-linear load. The effectiveness of the proposed controller is confirmed through experimental validation.

A single active capacitor snubber-assisted soft-switching sinewave pulse modulation utility-interactive power conditioner with a three-winding flyback high frequency transformer link and a bidirectional active power switch in its secondary side has been proposed. With the aid of the switched-capacitor quasi-resonant snubber cell, the high frequency switching devices in the primary side of the proposed DC-to-AC sinewave power inverter can be turned-off with ZVS commutation. In addition to this, the proposed power conditioner in the DCM can effectively take the advantages of ZCS turn-on commutation. Its output port is connected directly to the utility AC power source grid. At the end, the prototype of the proposed HF-UPC is built and tested in experiment. Its power conversion conditioning and processing circuit with a high frequency flyback transformer link is verified and the output sinewave current is qualified in accordance with the power quality guidelines of the utility AC interactive power systems.

An open-end winding (OEW) permanent magnet synchronous motor with dual inverters can synthesize large voltages for a motor with the same DC link voltage. This ability has the advantage of reducing the use of DC/DC boost converters or high voltage batteries. However, zero-sequence voltage (ZSV), which is caused by the difference in the combined voltage between the primary and secondary inverters, can generate a zero-sequence current (ZSC) that increases system losses. Among the methods for eliminating this phenomenon, combining voltage vector eliminated ZSV cannot be accomplished by the conventional Pulse Width Modulation(PWM) method. In this study, a PWM carrier generation method using functionalization to generate a switching pattern to suppress ZSC is proposed and applied to analyze the control influence of the center-zero vector in the switching sequence about the current ripple.

본 논문은 6-스텝까지 인버터의 선형제어영역을 넓히기 위한 공간전압 변조방법의 선형화 기법에 대해 제안하였다. 이 방법은 인버터에서 발생시키고자 하는 전압을 연속모드에서는 보상각을 얻기 위해서 6스텝 모드를 포함하는 불연속모드에서는 불연속 스위칭이 이루어지도록 하는 유지각을 얻기 위해서 퓨리에 급수를 이용하고 있다. 이 각들의 근사화 수식들을 과변조 영역에서 기본파 전압을 보상하기 위해 사용하였다. 따라서, PWM 인버터 출력전압의 최대 활용과 선형 제어를 이룰 수 있다.

In this paper, UPS, with a built-in instantaneous sag drop compensation features, was developed to improve performance. The improved UPS, using instantaneous moving average method, compensates by quickly measuring the voltage and series inverter of half-bridge type, using line-interactive method that links with the voltage of the battery and power source, was developed. In addition, by developing a parallel inverter that uses a high-efficiency PWM switching method, overall UPS system was enhanced. To verify the performance of the proposed algorithm, single-phase 5[kVA] UPS systems were designed and the experimental system was constructed. The low-cost type of Cortex-M3 module CPU STM32F103R8T6 (32[bit]) is attached and the switching time of mode transfer was set within 4 [ms]. THD of the linear load operates in less than 3[%], and the stability of the output voltage operates in approximately ${\pm}2[%]$ range. The superior performance of the operations was confirmed with the system set as above.

At present, the cold cathode fluorescent lamp (CCFL) using mercury lamp has been generally used far liquid crystal backlight source of personal computer and car navigation and so on. This kind of lamp is more excellent on luminance performance and cost. However, the requirements of liquid crystal backlight due to a light source without mercury have been strongly increased from a viewpoint of the actual influence on environmental preservation and environmental recycling. As fluorescent lamp without mercury, Dielectric Barrier Discharge based rare gas fluorescent lamp (DBD-FL) using xenon (Xe) gas has been studied so far. This DBD lamp has no influence on the human body and environmental recycle. Its operating life is long because electrode is out. In this paper, the simulation and experimental results of soft switching high frequency inverter with reverse blocking single switch as a high frequency power supply circuit for DBD-FL using Xe gas are comparatively evaluated and discussed from a practical point of view.

In Korea, a need of automatic dairy farm management system has been increased to lower production cost and to strengthen international competition. However, the present management system was mostly relied on foreign technologies and caused some problems in post management and after-sales services. Therefore, though there is a problem of price and quality at present, domestic technologies of the management system should be developed for the long run. This study was conducted to develop an electronic identification unit for an automatic dairy farm management system. The developed system was consisted of a tag, a reader, a switching circuit, and a personal computer. The tag attachable to each individual cow was developed to transmit individual radio frequency(RF) code into the air with modulation of ASK(amplitude shift keying). And the switching circuit was added to avoid confusion on reception and transmittance. The reader attached to a feeding device was developed to transmit activating signal periodically and to identify code of the individual tag when the tag was approached to the device. The reader was consisted of an active filter, a detecter, a comparator and a microcontroller. The test result was feasible enough to apply it for the automatic farm management system and the identified maximum distance was about 37cm.

휴대용 전자제품의 증가에 따라 배터리의 사용 시간을 증가시키기 위한 파워메니지먼트 회로의 설계는 매우 중요해 지고 있다. 이에 따라 switching power supply, 특히 DC-DC 변환기의 필요성은 더욱 커지고 있다. 기존 DC-DC 변환기용 컨트롤로 칩들은 순수한 아날로그 방식으로 설계되어 왔었다. 본 논문에서는 아날로그 방식의 단점을 극복하기 위한 디지털방식 컨트롤러 칩의 제작 및 측정된 연구 결과를 소개한다. 디지털 컨트롤러의 장점으로는 설계시간이 빠르고, 설계 변경을 쉽게 할수 있다는 점이다. 그러나 DC-DC 컨버터의 최종 출력 전압은 아날로그 전압이기 때문에, 아날로그를 디지털로 변환해 주는 장치가 디지털 컨트롤러에는 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 flash 방식의 데이터 변환기 대신에 회로설계가 단순화된 델타시그마 모듈레이션을 사용하여 아날로그 신호를 디지털 신호로 변환하였다. 개발된 CMOS 컨트롤로 칩은 테스트 보드 측정을 통하여 성공적인 동작이 검증되었다.
