Low noise, high frequency synchronous rectifier
Khai D. T. Ngo,Robert Louis Steigerwald,John P. Walden,Bantval Jayant Baliga,Charles Steven Korman,Hsueh-Rong Chang +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a synchronous rectifier with Schottky diodes is proposed. But the Schotty diode is not a junction diode in the structure, unlike the conventional FETs.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Characteristics of load resonant converters operated in a high power factor mode
TL;DR: In this article, the performance of the parallel resonant converter and the combination series/parallel resonant converters when operated above resonance in a high power factor mode is determined and compared for single-phase applications.
Patent
Solid state chopper ballast for gaseous discharge lamps
TL;DR: A single phase, high frequency, transistor or gate turnoff thyristor chopper ballast circuit especially suited for mercury vapor lamps preferably operates on a unfiltered full wave rectified line voltage and electronically shapes the lamp current and therefore the line current to obtain a high power factor as discussed by the authors.
Patent
Full load to no-load control for a voltage fed resonant inverter
TL;DR: In this paper, the duty cycle of the frequency signal is adjusted so that the frequency signals are provided in bursts during low load conditions, thereby minimizing circulating currents while maintaining the output voltage with dosed loop frequency control.
Patent
Regulated dc-dc converter using a resonating transformer
TL;DR: In this article, a series resonant dc-dc converter employing power transistors as the switching elements generates a high dc output voltage (150 kilovolts) to drive an X-ray tube.
