This paper presents a 3kW grid-connection photovoltaic power generation system and its topology. Photovoltaic system must provide the sinusoidal output voltage wave for unity power factor High frequency switching converters are becoming more popular because of several benefits which are essential in power conversion system. This paper introduces a high speed digital controller using TMS320F2812 DSP chip which can be used for high frequency switching converters. The experimental results of the proposed PWM Inverter demonstrates its high performance with unity input power factor having very low distorsion in input current waveforms and good dynamic characteristics at full load.

A fixed off-time controlled high power factor ac-dc LED driver is proposed in this paper, which employs a novel zero-crossing-compensation (ZCC) circuit based on a fixed off-time controlled scheme. Due to the parasitic parameters of the system, the practical waveforms have a dead region. By detecting the zero-crossing boundary, the proposed ZCC circuit compensates the control signal VCOMP within the dead region, and is invalid above this region. With further optimization of the parameters KR and Kτ of the ZCC circuit, the dead zone can be eliminated and lower THD is achieved. Finally, the chip is implemented in HHNEC 0.5μm 5V/40V HVCMOS process, and a prototype circuit, delivering 7~12W of power to several 3-W LED loads, is tested under AC input voltage ranging from 85V to 265V. The test results indicate that the average total harmonic distortion (THD) of the entire system is approximately 10%, with a minimum of 5.5%, and that the power factor is above 0.955, with a maximum of 0.999.

A method for obtaining the power energy with high quality is to keep the power factor for a load as close to unity as feasible. In this paper, we present a new method to improve the power factor for a load. The proposed method uses fuzzy control techniques in order to determine how many parallel capacitors are to be connected to the load for the correction of the power factor.

A novel AC to DC PWM converters with unity input power factor are proposed to overcome the above shortcoming. The main function of these converters is to shape the input line current to force it exactly in phase with the input AC voltage. Therefore, the input power factor can be improved to near unity and the input current harmonics can be eliminated. In this paper, half-bridge converter with two active switches and two diodes are utilized for low-cost type UPS configuration. By having only two semiconductors in the current path at any time, losses can be reduced over the conventional boost topology. Also, this converter provides controllable dc-link voltage, high power factor, and low cost type converter by simple power circuits. Simulation results show that the proposed half-bridge converter/inverter control technique can be applied to single-phase low-cost type UPS systems successfully.

최근 설비에 대한 고 역률과 저고조파의 요구가 증가하고 있어 국제적으로 고조파에 대한 규제가 강화되고 있다. 고조파를 줄이고 규제에 적합하기 위하여 역률 개선(PFC) 회로가 일반적으로 사용되어지고 있다. 이러한 역률개선 (PFC)회로의 제어방법으로 중, 대용량 스위칭 전원장치에 가장 적합한 것으로 알려진 평균 전류 제어방식이 가장 많이 사용되어지고 있다. 그러나 순시 정전이 된 후 복전 시 역률개선회로의 스위칭 소자가 빈번하게 파손이 되고있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점의 원인을 규명하고 해결 방법을 제안하였다.

This paper proposes a power factor correction circuit with a high efficiency over a wide load range characteristics for a communication power supply. And the characteristic verification is applied to produce a design of prototype. Power factor correction circuit can reduce conduction losses by applying Bridgeless Boost Converter for efficiency. Over a wide load range to maintain the efficient, the control method of a PWM controller is divided by two sections according to the load area. In the low-load region, it was reduced switching losses by applying the critical conduction mode control method. On the other hand, in the heavy-load area, the hysteresis current control method is used to maintain the high efficiency over a wide load range by limiting the peak noise of the inductor.

A strategy for a torque ripple reduction drive of single-phase SRM with high power factor is proposed. The drive for switched reluctance motor (SRM) is presented to achieve sinusoidal, near unity power factor input current with low torque ripple. The proposed SRM drive has no additional active switch. And a single-stage approach, which combines a DC link capacitor used as dc source and a drive used for driving the motor into one power stage, has a simple structure and low cost. The characteristics and validity of the proposed circuit is discussed in depth through the experimental results.

본 논문에서는 소프트 스위칭 방식의 부스트 회로를 이용한 역률 개선 회로를 새롭게 제안하였다. 제안한 역률개선 회로를 구성하는 내부 회로는 기존 PWM 부스트 회로와 전반적인 동작은 동일하며 단지 스위칭 순간에만 영전압 혹은 영전류 스위칭 동작을 하게 된다. 따라서 기존의 PWM 회로와 같이 제어가 용이할 뿐만 아니라 소프트 스위칭에 의한 고효율 성능을 얻게 된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 소프트 스위칭 회로를 이용하여 높은 효율을 가지는 역률 개선 회로를 체계적으로 설계하기 위한 방안을 제시하였다. 아울러 실험을 통하여 이러한 설계방법의 타당성과 제안한 역률 개선 회로의 우수성을 입증하였다.

A Single-phase Active Rectifier (SAR) [4-6] with high power factor capability is adopted to satisfy the international harmonic current standards such as IEC 1000-3-2. To minimize the input current distortion and to apply the control IC, such as FA5331, UC3854, ML4821 and so forth, the new adequate sensing circuits of the input voltage and current are proposed. There are tow methods applicable the SAR to inverter air-conditioner from the viewpoint of both efficiency and cost. The selecting methods of the passive components are presented for the two approaches. Using the determined components, the loss analyses are carried out. The prototype SAR circuits of these two approaches with 3kW power consumption are built and the operation and performance of the circuits with power factor correction capability are verified through the experimental results.
