This paper proposes a wide output range AC/DC converter for a rechargeable battery of electric vehicle. In the proposed wide output range AC/DC converter for rechargeable battery of electric vehicle, the main transformer in the DC/DC stage is divided by two. Therefore, if the switch is connected to the middle tap, then half of the maximum voltage is applied. Otherwise, it can be applied the full range of the high voltage by connecting the switch to the whole tab. And also, it is designed to have a wide output voltage range by applying Vin/2 made by changing the full-bridge to half-bridge by using the bridge change switch of the input stage. As it can be supplied the wide range output voltage with a single module, it has the advantage of space utilization and cost reduction effect.

In this paper, a voltage-controlled linear variable resistor (VCLVR) using a floating-gate MOS-FET (FG-MOSFET) is proposed. The proposed-circuit is the grounded VCLVR consists of only an ordinary MOSFET and an FG-MOSFET. The advantage of the proposed VCLVR are low-voltage and wide-input range. Next, as applications, a floating-node voltage controlled variable resistor and an operational transconductance amplifier using the proposed VCLVRs are proposed. The performance of the proposed circuits are characterized through HSPICE simulations with a standard 0.6 ${\mu}$m CMOS process. simulations of the proposed VCLVR demonstrate a resistance value of 40 k$\Omega$ to 338 k$\Omega$ and a THD of less than 1.1 %.

To match the dynamic lower voltage of a fuel cell stack and the required constant higher voltage (400V) of a DC bus, an H-type structural Boost three-level DC-DC converter with a wide voltage-gain range (HS-BTL) is presented in this paper. When compared with the traditional flying-capacitor Boost three-level DC-DC converter, the proposed converter can obtain a higher voltage-gain and does not require a complicate control for the flying-capacitor voltage balance. Moreover, the proposed converter, which can draw a continuous and low-rippled current from an input source, has the advantages of a wide voltage-gain range and low voltage stress for power semiconductors. The operating principle, parameters design and a comparison with other converters are presented and analyzed. Experimental results are also given to verify the aforementioned characteristics and theoretical analysis. The proposed converter is suitable for application of fuel cell systems.

DC-DC converter which composed of LLC resonant converter, operated by fixed switching frequency with fixed duty cycle (50%), and flyback converter to provide constant output voltage($400V_{DC}$) with variation of input voltage($30-60V_{DC}$) is proposed in this paper. To obtain constant output voltage($400V_{DC}$), flyback converter is not operated in case of above the maximum input voltage($60V_{DC}$) and operated as the input voltage decreases to below 60VDC. Therefore, flyback converter can be designed to the 50% power rating of the maximum power in the proposed DC-DC converter. Operation modes and voltage gain characteristics were analyzed and a 360W prototype converter was tested to verify the proposed converter.

In this paper, a wide input range active multi-pulse rectifier for utility interface of power electronic converters is proposed. The scheme combines multi-pulse method using a V-A transformer and boost rectifier modules.

This study presents a single-phase single-stage three-level AC/DC converter with a wide controllable output voltage. The proposed AC/DC converter is designed to extend the application of e-mobility, such as electric vehicles. The single-stage converter integrates a PFC converter and a three-level DC/DC converter, operates at a fixed frequency, and provides a wide controllable output voltage (approximately 200-430Vdc) with high efficiencies over a wide load range. In addition, the input boost inductors operate in a discontinuous mode to improve the input power factor. The switching devices operate with ZVS, and the converter's THD is small, especially at full load. The feasibility of the proposed converter is verified by the experimental results of a 1.5 kW prototype.

We investigated the input impedance characteristics of UHF-band RFID tag chip for increased reading range. A voltage multiplier designed using 0.4 ${\mu}m$ $zero-V_T$ MOSFET showed that DC output voltage of 2 V can be obtained using standard CMOS process. The input impedance of the voltage multiplier was examined to achieve impedance level for maximum reading distance using analytical and numerical approaches. The input impedance of the voltage multiplier could be varied in a wide range by selecting the size of MOSFET and the number of multiplying stages of the voltage multiplier, and thus, the impedance level required for the tag antenna can be obtained in presence of other tag circuit blocks.
