본 논문에서는 LLC 공진형 컨버터에 공진 회로를 추가함으로써 높은 자화 인덕턴스를 가지고 전원장치의 hold-up 동작 시 전압 이득 보상을 해주는 회로를 제안한다. 제안된 컨버터는 높은 자화 인덕턴스로 인해 1차측 도통 손실을 감소시킬 수 있으며, 공진회로를 통해 특정 주파수에서 높은 전압 이득을 얻을 수 있어 hold-up 조건을 만족 시킬 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 제안하는 회로의 동작을 이론적으로 해석하고 적절한 설계방법을 제시하여 실험결과를 통해 회로의 동작을 검증한다.

태양광 발전 시스템을 위한 무접점 변압기 적용 고효율 Full-bridge LLC 공진컨버터를 제안하였다. 제안된 LLC 공진컨버터는 직렬 커패시터와의 직렬공진을 위해 무접점 변압기의 누설인덕턴스와 자화인덕턴스를 이용하였다. 제안된 LLC 공진컨버터는 공진주파수 보다 높은 스위칭영역에서 연속 공진전류로 동작하는 기존 직렬공진 컨버터와는 달리 공진주파수 아래의 좁은 주파수 범위에서 불연속 공진전류로 동작한다. 이러한 불연속모드 공진전류 때문에 제안된 컨버터는 어떤 보조회로 없이 무접점 변압기 1차측 주스위칭 소자의 영 전압 스위칭(ZVS)과 2차측 다이오드의 영 전류 스위칭(ZCS)을 얻을 수 있고, 높은 전압이득특성을 갖는다. 본 논문에서는 무접점 변압기 적용 Full-bridge LLC 공진컨버터를 이용한 무접점 전원장치에 대한 이론적 해석 및 시뮬레이션을 통해 150W급 시제품을 제작하여 태양광 발전 전원시스템에 적용 실험한 결과를 서술했다.

Traditional boost converters have difficulty realizing high efficiency and high voltage gain conversion due to 1) extremely large duty cycles, 2) high voltage and current stresses on devices, and 3) low conversion efficiency. Therefore, a function decoupling high voltage gain DC/DC converter composed of a DC transformer (DCX) and an auxiliary converter is proposed. The role of DCX is to realize fixed gain conversion with high efficiency, whereas the role of the auxiliary converter is to regulate the output voltage. In this study, different forms of combined high voltage gain converters are compared and analyzed, and a structure is selected for the function decoupling high voltage gain converter. Then, topologies and control strategies for the DCX and auxiliary converter are discussed. On the basis of the discussion, an optimal design method for circuit parameters is proposed, and design procedures for the DCX are described in detail. Finally, a 400 W experimental prototype based on the proposed optimal design method is built to verify the accuracy of the theoretical analysis. The measured maximum conversion efficiency at rated power is 95.56%.

This paper focuses on the zero-voltage/zero current transition voltage equalization circuit for the series connected battery cell. By adding auxiliary resonant cells at the main switching devices such as MOSFET or IGBT, zero current switching is achieved and turned off loss of switching elements is eliminated and by the voltage/second balancing of the inductor, zero voltage switching can be applied to switching element. Transformer coupling between battery cells and ZVZCT (Zero Voltage Zero Current Transition) switching method allow the fast balancing speed and high frequency operation, which reduces the size and weight of the circuit. The validity of the battery equalization is further verified using simulation involving four lithium-ion battery cell models.

A single-phase bi-directional inverter with a diode bridge-type resonant circuit to implement ZVT(Zero Voltage Transition) switching is proposed. It is shown that the polarized ramptime current control algorithm, a method that belongs to the family of ZACE(Zero Average Current Error) methods, is a suitable technique to integrate with a typical single-phase ZVT inverter. The proposed current control algorithm is analyzed to design the circuit with auxiliary switch which can operate with ZVT for the main power switch. The simulation results would be shown to verify the proposed current algorithm to turn the main power switch on with ZVT and to operate the inverter bi-directionally

A new soft switching boost converter is proposed in this paper. The conventional boost converter generates switching losses at turn on and off. Because of that, the whole system efficiency is reduced. The proposed converter utilizes soft switching method using an auxiliary switch and resonant circuit. Thus, the converter reduces switching losses lower than ones of hard switching method. The proposed soft switching boost converter can be applied to photovoltaic system, power factor correction circuit and so on.

A full-bridge secondary dual-resonant DC-DC converter using the asymmetrical pulse-width modulated (APWM) strategy is proposed in this paper. The proposed converter achieves zero-voltage switching for the power switches and zero-current switching for the rectifier diodes in the whole load range without the help of any auxiliary circuit. Given the use of the APWM strategy, a circulating current that exists in a traditional phase-shift full-bridge converter is eliminated. The voltage stress of secondary rectifier diodes in the proposed converter is also clamped to the output voltage. Thus, the existing voltage oscillation of diodes in traditional PSFB converters is eliminated. This paper presents the circuit configuration of the proposed converter and analyzes its operating principle. Experimental results of a 1 kW 385 V/48 V prototype are presented to verify the analysis results of the proposed converter.
