전기 자동차의 배터리 충전용 OBC는 주로 PFC회로와 절연형 DC-DC 컨버터 회로를 포함한 2단으로 구성된다. 일반적으로 PFC 회로로는 구조가 간단한 비절연형 부스트 컨버터가 사용되고, 절연형 DC-DC 컨버터로는 ZVS(Zero Voltage Switching)가 가능한 공진형 컨버터가 이용되고 있다. 전기자동차의 주행거리 증가에 따른 넓은 배터리 출력에 대응하기 위해서는 OBC의 넓은 출력범위가 필요하지만, 이러한 시스템 회로 구성에서는 ZVS를 위한 회로설계의 한계와 제어기 구성이 복잡해지기 때문에 배터리 충전에 요구되는 넓은 범위의 출력에 효과적으로 대응하기에는 어려움이 있다. 본 논문에서는 절연형 전류원 방식의 PFC 회로와 벅 DC-DC 컨버터로 구성된 OBC를 제안하였다. 제안된 OBC는 회로 및 제어기 구성이 용이하고, 넓은 출력범위에 대한 대응이 가능하다. 제안된 회로의 유효성을 검증하기 위해 3.3㎾급 시작품을 제작 하였으며, 동작결과 출력전압 150V~400V에서 동작안정성 및 정격 부하 조건에서 최대 효율 94.4%, 최대 역률 99.2%를 확인하였다.

This paper proposes a novel high step-up non-isolated DC-DC converter, suitable for regulating dc bus in various inherent low voltage micro sources especially for photovoltaic (PV) and fuel cell sources. This novel high voltage Non-isolated Boost DC-DC converter topology is best replacement, where high voltage conversion ratio is required without the transformer and also need continuous input current. Since the proposed topology utilizes the stack-based structure, the voltage gain, and the efficiency are higher than other conventional non-isolated converters. Switches in this topology is easier to control since its control signal is grounding reference. Also, there is no need of extra gate driver and extra power supply for driver circuit, which reduces the cost and size of system. In order to show the feasibility and practicality of the proposed topology principle operation, steady state analysis and simulation result is presented and analyzed in detail. To verify the performance of proposed converter and theoretical analysis 360W laboratory prototype is implemented.

This paper presents an isolated bidirectional dc/dc converter based on primary parallel isolated boost converter (PPIBC). This topology is an efficient solution in low voltage high power applications due to its ability to handle high currents in the low voltage side. In this paper, the converter has been modeled using non-ideal components and operated without any additional circuitry for startup using a digital soft-start procedure. Simulated and measured loop gains have been compared for the validity of the model. On-the-fly current direction change has been achieved with a prototype interconnecting two battery banks. A second prototype has been constructed and tested for supercapacitor operation in constant power charge mode.

The independently regulated dual-output LLC resonant converter using only one power stage and one control IC is proposed in this paper. The conventional dual-output LLC resonant converter requires the extra non-isolated DC/DC converter to obtain the tightly regulated slave output voltage, which results in the low power conversion efficiency and high production costs. On the other hand, since the proposed converter controls the master and slave output voltages by pulse width modulation(PWM) and pulse frequency modulation(PFM), it can achieve tightly regulated dual output voltages without the additional non-isolated DC/DC converter. Therefore, it features a high efficiency and low cost. To confirm the validity of the proposed converter, theoretical analysis and experimental results from a 40W LED driver prototype are presented.

Recently, the high frequency isolated boost DC/DC converter has been widely used for the PCS (Power Conditioning System) system because of its small size and low cost. However, the high frequency isolated boost DC/DC converters applied the conventional voltage-fed converter and current-fed converter have the problems such as the high conduction losses and the surge voltage due to the high circulating current and the leakage inductance, respectively. To overcome this problems, in this paper the secondary LLC resonant converter is proposed, and the experimental results of the secondary LLC series resonant converter for boost DC/DC converter are verified on the simulation based on the theoretical analysis and the 700W experimental prototype.

In the battery system, an isolated converter is used for the stability of the system when controlling the charge and discharge of the battery. A fixed frequency LLC converter which is a type of isolated converter, has the advantage of high efficiency and power density with zero voltage switching at high frequency. Therefore, in this paper, the operation analysis, design and experimental verification of the LLC resonant converter with high efficiency and high power density for the ESS system were conducted.

In this paper, a single-switch ZVZCS quasi-resonant CLL isolated DC-DC converter for driving a low-power (less than 100 W) 32'' LED backlighting liquid crystal display television (LCD TV) is proposed. The proposed converter exhibits both forward and flyback operational characteristics. All semiconductors are activated and deactivated under the soft switching conditions during the switching transition without additional active devices. The switching frequency varies less than about 10 kHz for load variations, leading to minimizing the efficiency reduction under light load. Furthermore, the low di/dt and dv/dt by soft switching enhance the electromagnetic interference (EMI) performance above 1 MHz. A theoretical analysis is described in detail, and a 72-W prototype converter verifies the validity of the analysis.

In this paper a bidirectional DC-DC converter is proposed for renewable energy systems, eco-friendly vehicles, energy storage systems, uninterruptible power supply(UPS) systems and battery test equipments. The two-stage bidirectional converter employing a fixed-frequency series loaded resonant converter is designed to be capable of operating under zero-current-switching turn on and turn off regardless of voltage and load variation, and hence its magnetic components and EMI filters can be optimized. And efficiencies and volumes of the two-stage bidirectional converters are compared according to configuration of isolated and non-isolated parts and a two-stage topology suitable for low voltage and high current applications is proposed. A 12kW(12V, 1000A) prototype of the proposed converter has been built and tested to verify the validity of the proposed operation.

AC 구동 시스템에서의 회생에너지의 활용은 1990년대 본 방식이 산업계의 표준 방식이 된 이후 오랜 기간동안 이슈화 되어 왔다. 회생에너지의 크기에 따라 저용량의 경우에는 제동저항으로 소모시키는 방식이 일반적이었으나, 이러한 에너지의 활용이 적극적으로 논의외면서 회생용 컨버터를 장착하는 방식이 보급되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 종래의 전원회생 컨버터방식의 최대 단점으로 언급되고 있는 순환전류의 저감을 위해 절연형 회생 컨버터 방식을 제안하였다. 에너지 절감차원에서 일정 용량이상의 AC 드라이브 시스템에는 회생에너지를 활용하기 위한 전원회생 컨버터 시스템을 채용하는 것이 일반적이나, 시스템의 구조 상 순환전류가 발생하게 되어, 이로 인한 효율의 저하 역시 필연적으로 발생된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 순환전류를 해결하기 위한 절연형 전원회생 컨버터 방식을 제안하였고, 가능성을 검증하기 위한 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과 기존의 시스템에서 나타난 정격대비 20%의 순환전류가 제안된 시스템에서는 나타나지 않음을 확인하였고 제안된 시스템의 타당성을 확인할 수 있었다.
