This paper presents Continuous-current mode of $S^4$-PFC(Single-Stage Single-switch Power Factor Correction) converter. Proposed converter operates in the continueous current mode(CCM) at full load and discontinuous current mode(DCM) at light load. So, characteristic of proposed converter is no bus voltage stress and Zero Voltage Switching(ZVS) using resonant auxiliary circuit. And. This paper presents characteristic of $S^4$-PFC converter and effect of circuit parameter of proposed converter through the input inductor, PFC capacitor's variation. All of these theory and characteristic verified through the experiment with a 72W(12V, 6A), $90^{kHz}$ prototype converter.

The multi-resonant converter minimizes the parasitic oscillations using the resonant tank circuit absorbed parasitic reactances in a converter. So the converter can be operated at a high frequency and it provides a high efficiency because the switching power losses are reduced effectively. However, the high resonant voltage stress of semiconductors leads to the conduction loss. In this paper, it is proposed the novel flyback multi-resonant converter. The converter input is divided by two series input capacitors. And also the resonant stress is reduced to 2-3 times input voltage without any complexity and it provides the various circuit schemes in lots of applications. The proposed converters are verified through simulation and experiment.

In this paper, a new control scheme of Class-E inverter for reducing the crest factor of electronic ballasts for fluorescent lamps using Pulse-Frequency-Modulation (PFM) is introduced The lifetime of the lamps is guaranteed by decreasing the lamp crest factor and voltage stress of the switch is significantly decreased by a new scheme although conventional Class-E inverter is used in this paper The proposed PFM control scheme doesn't used any auxiliary circuit. The proposed control strategy is executed by feeding back the input current. and the Zero-Voltage-Switching (ZVS) is ensured by operating beyond resonant frequency. Therefore, the control principles of proposed method are explained in detail and its validity is verified through several simulated results.

Conventional phase shift full bridge (PSFB) converter has serious voltage oscillation problem across the secondary rectifier diodes, which would require the dissipate snubber circuit, thus degrades the overall efficiency. To overcome this problem, a new voltage oscillation reduction technique (VORT) which effectively reduce the voltage oscillation of the secondary rectifier diodes for phase shift 1011 bridge converter is proposed. Therefore, no dissipate snubber for rectifier diodes is needed. In addition, since it has wide zero voltage switching (ZVS) range, high efficiency can be achieved. Operational principle, analysis of voltage oscillation, and design consideration are presented compare with that of the conventional PSFB converter. To confirm the validity of the proposed VORT, experimental results from a 420W, 385Vdc/210Vdc prototype are presented.

A new high efficiency active clamp forward converter suitable for the sustaining power module(SPM) of a plasma display panel (PDP) is proposed. It has a wide zero voltage switching (ZVS) range without inserting additional resonant inductor. Also, it features simpler structure, lower cost, less mass, and no effective duty loss. Furthermore, voltages across all rectifier diodes are clamped on the output voltage, which results in a higher efficiency.

본 논문은 ZVS asymmetrical half-bridge converter 에서 무부하시 전력소모 분석과 감소 방안에 대한 연구이다. Asymmetrical half-bridge converter는 영전압 스위칭을 통해 효율 증가가 가능하고, 낮은 EMI 발생의 장점으로 인해 최근 많이 사용되고 있다. 그러나 최근 이슈가 되고 있는 대기전력 소모의 관점에서는 기존의 hard switching converter에 비해 오히려 손실이 증가한다. 이는 공진형 컨버터의 무부하시 동작이 기생전류에 의한 도통손실이 크기 때문이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이를 개선 할 수 있는 방법을 제시하고 70W급의 실험용 SMPS의 제작을 통해 제안된 방법의 타당성을 검증한다.

This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the spurious turn-on phenomena in phase-shifted full-bridge (PSFB) converters. The conventional analysis of the spurious turn-on phenomenon does not establish in the PSFB converter as realizing zero voltage switching (ZVS). Firstly, a circuit model is proposed taking into account the parasitic capacitors and inductors of the transistors, as well as the parasitic elements of the power circuit loop. Second, an exhaustive investigation into the impact of all these parasitic elements on the spurious turn-on is conducted. It has been found that the spurious turn-on phenomenon is mainly attributed to the parasitic inductors of the power circuit loop, while the parasitic inductors of the transistors have a weak impact on this phenomenon. In addition, the operation principle of the PSFB converter makes the leading and lagging legs have distinguished differences with respect to the spurious turn-on problems. Design guidelines are given based on the theoretical analysis. Finally, detailed simulation and experimental results obtained with a 1.5 kW PSFB converter are given to validate proposed analysis.

In this paper, a single-phase single-stage three-level AC/DC converter with a wide controllable output voltage is presented. It integrates a PFC converter and a three level DC/DC converter into one. The proposed converter operates at a fixed frequency and provides a wide controllable output voltage ($200V_{dc}-430V_{dc}$) 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. Moreover, all 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 with experimental results of a 1.5kW prototype.
