The topology of active clamp forward converter provides ZVS characteristic and also the stress of voltage and current is smaller than that of the conventional forward converters. The benefits of this technique include a higher efficiency at a high switching frequency, lower EMI/RFI. In this paper, the active clamp forward converter is designed for operation in wide range voltage and has 19.5V/120W ratings with efficiency more than 90%.

본 논문에서는 광범위 출력전압을 위한 고정밀 BiCMOS cascode 전류미러를 제안하였다. 제안한 전류미러는 베이스 전류에러를 보상하는 BJT 전류미러를 기본으로 하고 있다. NMOS-NMOS cascode 구조 대신에 npn-NMOS cascode 구조를 사용하여, 출력저항과 출력전압 범위를 증가시켰다. npn 전류 복사 트랜지스터는 입력전류를 출력전류로 복사하고, NMOS 트랜지스터는 출력저항을 증가시켜 정밀한 전류 복사를 가능케 한다. 제안한 전류미러는 광범위 출력전압에서 정밀하게 전류를 복사한다. 5V/16V 0.5um BCD 공정을 이용하여 제작한 칩을 측정하여 검증하였고, $0.3V{\sim}16V$의 출력전압 범위에서 전류 에러는 $-2.5%{\sim}1.0%$이다.

LLC resonant converters display many advantages over the conventional LC series resonant converter such as narrow frequency variation over wide range of load and input variation and zero voltage switching even under no load conditions. This paper presents analysis and design consideration for the half bridge LLC resonant converter. Using the fundamental approximation, the gain equation is obtained, where the leakage inductance in the transformer secondary side is also considered. Based on the gain equation, the practical design procedure is investigated to optimize the resonant network for a given input/output specifications. The design procedure is verified through an experimental prototype of the 115W half-bridge LLC resonant converter.

High-linearity voltage-controlled current sources (VCCSs) circuits for wide voltage-controlled oscillator and automatic gun control were proposed. The VCCS consists of emitter follower for voltage input, two common-base amplifier which their emitter connected for current output, and current mirror which connected the two amplifier for large output current. The VCCS used only five transistors and a resistor without an extra bias circuit. Simulation results show that the VCCS has current output range from 0mA to 300mA over the control voltage range from 1V to 4.8V at supply voltage 5V. The linearity error of output current has less than $1.4\%$ over the current range from 0A to 300mA.

This paper proposes an input-series-output-parallel connected ZVS full bridge converter with interleaved control for photovoltaic power conditioning systems (PV PCS). The input-series connection enables a fully modular power-system architecture, where low voltage and standard power modules can be connected in any combination at the input and/or at the output, to realize any given specifications. Further, the input-series connection enables the use of low-voltage MOSFETs that are optimized for a very low RDSON, thus, resulting in lower conduction losses. The system costs decrease due to the reduced current, and the volumes of the output filters due to the interleaving technique. A topology for a photovoltaic (PV) dc/dc converter that can dramatically reduce the power rating and increase the efficiency of a PV system by analyzing the PV module characteristics is proposed. The control scheme, consisting of an output voltage loop, a current loop and input voltage balancing loops, is proposed to achieve input voltage sharing and output current sharing. The total PV system is implemented for a 10-kW PV power conditioning system (PCS). This system has a dc/dc converter with a 3.6-kW power rating. It is only one-third of the total PV PCS power. A 3.6-kW prototype PV dc/dc converter is introduced to experimentally verify the proposed topology. In addition, experimental results show that the proposed topology exhibits good performance.

This paper investigates a new isolated single-phase AC-DC converter, which integrates a modified AC-DC buck-boost converter with a DC-DC forward converter. The front semi-stage is operated in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) to achieve an almost unity power factor and a low total harmonic distortion of the input current. The rear semi-stage is used for step-down voltage conversion and electrical isolation. The front semi-stage uses a coupled inductor with the same winding-turn in the primary and secondary sides, which is charged in series during the switch-on period and is discharged in parallel during the switch-off period. The discharging time can be shortened. In other words, the duty ratio can be extended. This semi-stage can be operated in a larger duty-ratio range than the conventional AC-DC buck-boost converter for DCM operation. Therefore, the proposed converter is suitable for universal input voltage (90~264 $V_{rms}$) and a wide output-power range. Moreover, the voltage stress on the DC-link capacitor is low. Finally, a prototype circuit is implemented to verify the performance of the proposed converter.

본 논문에서 저전력 PMIC를 위한 고효율 DC-DC 변환기를 설계하였다. IoT 및 웨어러블 기기의 발전에 따라 전력 공급을 위한 고효율 에너지 습득 기술이 중요해지고 있다. 에너지 습득을 통해서 얻을 수 있는 전압은 낮고 넓은 분포의 값을 가지므로 이를 사용하기 위해서 넓은 입력 전압 범위에서 고효율을 얻을 수 있는 설계 기법이 필수적이다. 넓은 입력 전압 범위에서 일정한 스위칭 주파수를 얻기 위해 전원 전압 변화 감지 회로를 이용한 주파수 보상 회로를 설계했으며, 낮은 전력에서 고효율을 얻기 위해 burst-mode 제어 회로를 구성하여 정밀한 스위칭 동작을 제어하였다. 설계한 DC-DC 벅 변환기는 0.95~3.3V의 입력 전압 조건에서 0.9V를 출력하며 부하 전류가 180uA일 때 최대 78%의 효율을 얻을 수 있다.

Input filters are very important to matrix converters (MCs). They are used to improve grid side current waveform quality and to reduce the input voltage distortion supplied to the grid side. Due to the effects of the input filter and the output power, the grid side power factor (PF) is not at unity when the input power factor angle is zero. In this paper, the displacement angle between the grid side phase current and the phase voltage affected by the input filter parameters and output power is analyzed. Based on this, a new grid side PF unity compensation method implemented in the indirect space vector pulse width modulation (ISVPWM) method is presented, which has a larger compensation angle than the traditional compensation method, showing a higher grid side PF at unity in a wide output power range. Simulation and experimental results verify that the analysis of the displacement angle between the grid side phase current and the phase voltage affected by the input filter and output power is right and that the proposed compensation method has a better grid side PF at unity.

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.
