Zero-Voltage Transition Current-Fed Full-Bridge PWM Converter

Abstract: In this paper, a new zero-voltage transition current-fed full-bridge converter with a simple auxiliary circuit is introduced for high step-up applications. In this converter, for the main switches, zero-voltage switching condition is achieved at wide load range. Furthermore, all semiconductor devices of the employed simple auxiliary circuit are fully soft switched. The proposed converter is analyzed and a prototype is implemented. The experimental results presented confirm the validity of the theoretical analysis. Finally, the proposed auxiliary circuit is applied to other current-fed topologies such as current-fed push-pull and half-bridge converters to provide soft switching.

Interleaved Buck Converter With Continuous Input Current, Extremely Low Output Current Ripple, Low Switching Losses, and Improved Step-Down Conversion Ratio

Abstract: This paper proposes an interleaved buck converter (IBC) with continuous input current, extremely low output current ripple, low switching losses, and improved step-down conversion ratio Unlike the conventional IBC, the proposed converter has a continuous input current, and its output current ripple is extremely low The proposed converter has a lower voltage stress in comparison to the conventional IBC and can also provide a high step-down ratio, which makes it a proper choice for high-power applications where a nonisolated step-down converter with low output current ripple and continuous input current is required Also, the proposed converter can provide current sharing between two interleaved modules without using additional current-sharing control method All of these benefits are obtained without any additional stress on the circuit components A prototype converter with 200-V input and 24-V–10-A output is implemented to verify the theoretical analysis Operational principles and experimental results are presented in this paper

Family of Zero-Current Transition PWM Converters

Abstract: In this paper, a new auxiliary circuit is introduced for applying to buck, buck-boost, zeta, forward, and flyback converters. This auxiliary circuit provides a zero-current switching condition for all switching elements. The proposed zero-current transition (ZCT) pulsewidth-modulated buck converter is briefly described. Also, a ZCT flyback converter is analyzed, and its different operating modes are presented. Design considerations are explained, and a design example along with the experimental results of the ZCT flyback converter is presented.

Analysis of the Integrated SEPIC-Flyback Converter as a Single-Stage Single-Switch Power-Factor-Correction LED Driver

Abstract: This paper proposes a new isolated single-stage single-switch power-factor-correction (S4 PFC) driver for supplying light-emitting diodes (LEDs) without electrolytic capacitor. In the proposed LED driver, the switch turns on under zero current switching (ZCS) condition. Also, it turns on at a voltage less than its nominal voltage stress, and therefore, the switch capacitive turn-on loss decreases too much extent. The leakage energy is absorbed, so there are no voltage spikes across the switch when the switch turns off. In this paper, operating principles of the proposed driver are discussed, and design considerations are presented. Also, a laboratory prototype for supplying a 21 W/30 V LED module from 220 ${\rm V}_{\rm rms}/50\,{\rm Hz}$ ac mains is implemented, and experimental results are presented to verify the theoretical analysis.

A New Interleaved Coupled-Inductor Nonisolated Soft-Switching Bidirectional DC–DC Converter With High Voltage Gain Ratio

Abstract: This paper presents a new interleaved coupled-inductor nonisolated bidirectional dc–dc converter that provides high voltage gain ratio (VGR), low ripple current at the low-voltage side (LVS), and soft switching. The high VGR is obtained by connecting in series the outputs of an interleaved bidirectional buck–boost converter and a dual-active half-bridge converter, using the turns ratio of a coupled inductor. Since the voltage of the high-voltage side is shared between the converters outputs, the voltage stress across the active switches decrease. The active switches turn ON under zero-voltage switching condition in both directions. Moreover, the low current ripple at the LVS is achieved due to the applied interleaved technique. By employing the phase-shift angle modulation, the output voltage is regulated. The proposed converter is analyzed in details and a 900-W experimental prototype with 48-V input voltage and 400-V output voltage under 100-kHz switching frequency is implemented to verify the theoretical results.

Comprehensive Study of Single-Phase AC-DC Power Factor Corrected Converters With High-Frequency Isolation

Abstract: Solid-state switch mode AC-DC converters having high-frequency transformer isolation are developed in buck, boost, and buck-boost configurations with improved power quality in terms of reduced total harmonic distortion (THD) of input current, power-factor correction (PFC) at AC mains and precisely regulated and isolated DC output voltage feeding to loads from few Watts to several kW. This paper presents a comprehensive study on state of art of power factor corrected single-phase AC-DC converters configurations, control strategies, selection of components and design considerations, performance evaluation, power quality considerations, selection criteria and potential applications, latest trends, and future developments. Simulation results as well as comparative performance are presented and discussed for most of the proposed topologies.
