High voltage transformer and ignition transformer using the same

Abstract: A small-sized heat resisting high voltage transformer and an ignition transformer using the high voltage transformer are provided and utilize both a heat resistant casting resin and a bobbin, which contain an inorganic filler. The high voltage transformer is capable of producing an output voltage of 10-35 kV and comprises a primary coil, a secondary coil, and a magnetic core, wherein a casting resin is injected into the coil part and subsequently cured. The casting resin and bobbin material used for making the coils have heat distortion temperature of at least 130° C., and contain an inorganic filler. The surface of the bobbin may be pretreated. Thereby, adhesion between a bobbin and a casting resin is enhanced to ensure operating properly under the sever heat cycle condition and provide a small-sized heat resistant high voltage transformer.

Design consideration of flat transformer in LLC resonant converter for low core loss

Abstract: Low-profile, high efficiency power supply is today's industry trend for Plasma Display Panel (PDP) application system. Transformer is the major challenge and bottleneck for achieving low-profile, high power density converter. Generally, it is necessary for low-profile converter to operate it at high switching frequency. However, it is very difficult to design converter using flat magnetic component because flat transformer temperature becomes high at high switching frequency. In this paper, the design and analysis of flat transformer in LLC resonant converter for the PDP TV is proposed to reduce temperature of the transformer. In this proposed converter, flat transformer is integrated into advanced power conversion application systems. Low-profile power module of profile of about 14mm is achieved. Temperature inside of transformer repressed to 71oC and an overall efficiency of about 96.6% was obtained.

Solid state transformer with low-voltage ride-through and current unbalance management capabilities

Abstract: The solid state transformer is an emerging technology which aims at replacing the conventional low-frequency power transformer by means of a high-frequency transformer driven by a proper AC/AC power electronics conversion system, at both transformer sides. In comparison with the conventional power transformer, the solid state transformer provides extended and enhanced operating capabilities that can be achieved with an appropriate controller design for the power electronics converters. In this work, the interaction of the solid state transformer with a distribution system is analyzed under different operating conditions. Bidirectional active power flow, full reactive power control, low-voltage side current unbalance management and high-voltage side low-voltage ride-through are achieved with the proposed control approach.
