본 논문에서는 용접 전문의 전력단 스위치로 MOSEFT을 사용하는 ZVS-PWM 스위칭 방식의 풀브리지 회로에 대한 연구결과를 발표한다. 제안된 ZVS-PWM 풀브리지 컨버터는 스위칭 주파수를 60kHz로 사용하고 변압기를 병렬로 적용해 고전력밀도를 갖도록 설계되었다. 변압기 병렬 구동 시 발생하는 전력 불균형 현상은 공통모드 결합 인덕터(CMCI; Common Mode Coupled Inductor) 부착을 통해 개선되었다. 본 논문은 제안된 회로의 연구를 실험을 통해 검증하고 이에 대한 실험 결과 및 분석을 나타내고 있다.

This paper presents a 1.92 kW resonant converter for medium voltage applications that uses low voltage stress MOSFETs (500V) to achieve zero voltage switching (ZVS) turn-on. In the proposed converter, four MOSFETs are connected in series to limit the voltage stress of the power switches at half of the input voltage. In addition, three resonant circuits are adopted to share the load current and to reduce the current stress of the passive components. Furthermore, the transformer primary and secondary windings are connected in series to balance the output diode currents for medium power applications. Split capacitors are adopted in each resonant circuit to reduce the current stress of the resonant capacitors. Two balance capacitors are also used to automatically balance the input capacitor voltage in every switching cycle. Based on the circuit characteristics of the resonant converter, the MOSFETs are turned on under ZVS. If the switching frequency is less than the series resonant frequency, the rectifier diodes can be turned off under zero current switching (ZCS). Experimental results from a prototype with a 750-800 V input and a 48V/40A output are provided to verify the theoretical analysis and the effectiveness of the proposed converter.

The power conversion system must be increased switching frequency in order to achieve a small size, a light weight and a low noise. This paper proposes a skillful and a concise PWM DC-DC converter employing both zero voltage and zero current high frequency switching(ZVCS) operation. The Proposal ZVCS circuit is composed with resonant circuit using active resonant condenser. And this circuit provides switches with ZVS and ZCS by quasi resonant only that switching transients appear. This operation results in reduction of stress and losses in the power devices and resonant components. Some simulation results are included to confirm the validity of the analytical results.

This paper proposes a novel ZVZCS-PWM Boost Converter. It enables the main switch to be turned on and off with both zero voltage and zero current and the auxiliary switch to be turned on and off with ZCS, the rectify diode to be turned on and off with ZVS. Moreover, this converter is suitable for not on]y minority carrier device but also majority carrier device. The auxiliary resonant circuit of the proposed boost converter is placed out the main power path, therefore, there are no voltage/current stresses on the main switch and diode. The operation of the proposed boost converter is explained and analyzed theoretical and experimentally, from a prototype operating at 100kHz, with an input voltage rated at 50V.

This paper presents novel ZVZCS PWM DC-DC converters. The proposed soft-switching technique achieves ZVS and ZCS simultaneously at both turn-on and turn-off of the main switch and diode by using only one auxiliary switch. Also, the proposed soft-switching technique is suitable for not only minority but also majority carrier semiconductor devices. The auxiliary circuit of the proposed topology is placed out the main power path and therefore, there are no voltage/current stresses on the main switch and diode. The operating principle of the proposed circuit is illustrated by a detailed study with the boost converter as an example. The validity of the proposed converter is verified by theoretical analysis, simulation and experiment results.

A switching power stage is a very nonlinear system because it has two or more operation modes in one switching cycle. To model a switching power stage, the state space averaging method has been developed. Though it allows a unified treatment of a large variety of switching power stages, the model it yields is always very nonlinear. So, it is required to linearize the averaged model. But it is well known that a controller for a nonlinear plant designed by the linearization frequently fails in showing satisfactory control performance. Hence it is very natural to try to design a nonlinear controller for a switching power stage. In design of a switching power system, nonlinear control approaches such as adaptive control and fuzzy control have been widely studied so far. In this research, a recently developed control method, time delay control is briefly studied and a design example for a ZVS PWM half bridge converter is given. The performance of the time delay controller is compared to its conventional counterpart, PI controller by computer simulations.

A Novel Zero Current Switching(ZCS) Pulse Width Modulation(PWM) boost converter for reducing two rectifiers reverse recovery related losses Is proposed. The switches of the proposed converter are operating to work alternatively turn-on and turn-off with soft switching(ZVS, ZCS) condition. The reverse recovery related switching losses and EMI problems of the proposed converter eliminates the reverse recovery current of the freewheeling diode(D, Dl) by adding the resonant inductor Lr, in series with the switch S2. The voltage and current stresses of the components are similar to those in its conventional hard switching counterpats. As mentioned above, the characteristics are verified through experimental results.

본 논문에서 대전력, 고전압에 적합한 three-level 의사공진형 PWM 컨버터를 제안한다. 의사공진형으로 동작함으로써 넓은 ZVS 영역을 가지며, 고정 주파수를 사용하므로 자기 소자의 설계가 쉬워지는 장점을 가진다. 그리고, 변압기에 인가되는 전압 파형의 주파수가 스위칭 주파수의 2배가 되므로 변압기의 크기를 줄 일 수 있고, 변압기 2차측에 출력 인덕터가 없는 전압배가기를 적용하여 정류기 양단에 전압리깅이 발생하지 않아 정류단의 전압 스트레스가 감소되는 장점 또한 가진다. 본 논문에서는 제안한 컨버터을 분석하고, 프로토타입을 통해 그 동작을 검증한다.
