This paper presents characteristics of piezo transformer for AC-DC converter. This transformer uses transverse vibration mode and the origin of the structure was the ring dot type transformer. Because, the ring dot type transformers produce only step-up phenomenon, we made a multi-layered ring dot structure for a step-down output. The characteristics of the transformer were simulated by using the ANSYS. And frequency and voltage were measured by changing the load resistance and current. Frequencies that have the maximum output voltage and current were gradually increased, when the resistance were increased. Output voltage and current show a stable linearity according to the input voltage. The maximum output power was expected greater than 20 [W]. So, we expect that this type of multi-layered step-down ring dot transformer can be adopted for a small AC adapters.

A new type of topology with medium-frequency-transformer (MFT) isolation for medium voltage wind power generation systems is proposed in this paper. This type of converter is a high density power conversion system, with high performance features suitable for next generation wind power systems in either on-shore or off-shore applications. The proposed topology employs single-phase cascaded multi-level AC-AC converters on the grid side and three phase matrix converters on the generator side, which are interfaced by medium frequency transformers. This avoids DC-Link electrolytic capacitors and/or resonant L-C components in the power flow path thereby improving the power density and system reliability. Several configurations are given to fit different applications. The modulation and control strategy has been detailed. As two important part of the whole system, a novel single phase AC-AC converter topology with its reliable six-step switching technique and a novel symmetrical 11-segment modulation strategy for two stage matrix converter (TSMC) is proposed at the special situation of medium frequency chopping. The validity of the proposed concept has been verified by simulation results and experiment waveforms from a scaled down laboratory prototype.

Single-phase multi-level AC-DC converter is proposed that is composed of diode bridge and switch. The number of the supply current level is depending on the individual current level of the converter. A converter circuit the number of the level is equal to $\textrm{2}^{M+1}$-1 The proposed circuit has converter with 31 current levels. When the number of current level is increased smoother sinusoidal waveform can be obtained directly and it is possible to control the supply current almost continuously from zero to maximum without step changes of generating high voltage as pulse width modulation switching loss is decreased it has an advantage in large capacity. it is illustrated technique are confirmed the validity and effectiveness through the simulation & experiments

The proposed GTO converter system has the better harmonic characteristics, especially, in the distortion factor (55%), than the conventional 12-step converter system. The improved harmonic characteristics was achieved through the unsymmetrical angle control of the each converter. In addition, the proposed system can save the cost (20%), spase (50%) and weigh (8%). The proposed system was studied in simulation and experiment.

The use of high-gain-voltage step-up converters for distributed power generation systems is being popularized because of the need for new energy generation and power conversion technologies. In this study, a new constructed high-gain-boost DC-DC converter was proposed to coordinate low voltage output DC sources, such as PV or fuel cell systems, with high DC bus (380 V) lines. Compared with traditional boost DC-DC converters, the proposed converter can create higher gain and has wider input voltage range and lower voltage stress for power semiconductors and passive elements. Moreover, the proposed topology produces multilevel DC voltage output, which is the main advantage of the proposed topology. Steady-state analysis in continuous conduction mode of the proposed converter is discussed in detail. The practicability of the proposed DC-DC converter is presented by experimental results with a 300 W prototype converter.

본 논문에서는 고승압.대전력 응용에 적합한 소프트스위칭 인터리빙 부스트 컨버터를 제안한다. 제안하는 컨버터는 동일 듀티로 기존 부스트 컨버터보다 약 2배의 승압비를 얻을 수 있고 스위치와 다이오드의 전압정격은 약 1/2로 감소되어 $R_{DS(ON)}$과 전압 강하가 작은 소자 사용으로 도통손실을 감소시킬 수 있다. 또한 수동소자의 전압정격이 감소되어 전체 에너지량도 1/2로 감소된다. 더욱이 CCM에서도 스위치의 ZVS 턴온이 가능하고 다이오드의 ZCS 턴오프 동작으로 역방향 회복에 의한 서지가 거의 없어 스위칭 손실이 감소된다. 2kW의 시작품으로 제안하는 컨버터의 타당성을 검증하였다.

The commutation and control in matrix converters is more complicated as in voltage source converters. Natural freewheeling paths do not exist and the theoretic absent storage elements result in a direct coupled system of load and line currents as well as voltages. The paper offers an overview about staggered commutation and control policies in matrix converters. Based on the knowledge about load current direction and the signs of the line to line input voltages different multi-step commutation policies were derived. This paper examines the application of that policies in the case of space vector modulation and direct control methods with the focus on the resulting effects to the reference output voltage deviation.

본 논문에서는 이중접속 방식의 멀티스텝 인버터를 이용한 대용량 STATCOM에 관하여 동작원리 및 제어 방식을 기술하기로 한다. 기존의 12-스텝 인버터에 상간 변압기 및 간단한 보조회로를 이용하여 출력전압의 파형을 36-스텝으로 개선하였다. 이러한 방식의 인버터는 특히 10Mvar∼30Mvar급 전후의 STATCOM에 적용하면 경제적이다. 2KVA급 STATCOM 시작품의 실험결과로부터 제안한 방식의 타당성을 입증하였다.
