This paper presents a modified nine switch inverter with two inputs and two Z-source networks. This inverter has two DC inputs and two AC outputs. Input DC voltages can be boosted to the required level. Amplitude, frequency and phase of AC output voltages can be controlled, independently. The proposed converter can be used in applications with two unregulated DC sources, which require feeding ...

A high frequency, low voltage, high current DC-DC converter is most suitable for high speed electronic circuits like microprocessors, telecommunication networks etc. This paper presents the details regarding the selection of Isolated DC-DC converter for high current applications using Current Double Rectifier (CDR) among four isolated DC-DC Converters such as flyback, forward, push-pull and two...

We have developed a new isolated AC/DC converter for electric vehicle on-board chargers. It consists of an AC/DC converter with Gradationally Controlled Voltage Inverter (GCVI AC/DC converter) and an isolated Zero-Voltage-Switching (ZVS) DC/DC converter, each of which is optimally controlled to convert in a highly efficient means. As a result, the new on-board charger has achieved a power conve...

This paper presents a novel topology of single-phase multilevel inverter for low and high power applications. It consists of polarity (Level) generation circuit and H Bridge. The proposed topology can produce higher output voltage levels by connecting dc voltage sources   in series and parallel. The proposed topology utilizes minimum number of power electronic devices which helps in reduction o...

Series connections of modules in cascaded multilevel converters are prone to power imbalances due voltage differences on their DC side. When connected direct current (DC) sources, such as photovoltaic panels, the capability withstanding is crucial for generating maximum power. In order provide a possible solution this requirement, paper proposes control strategy called Quadrature Voltage Compen...

The growing attention for plug-in electric vehicles, and the associated high-performance demands, have initiated a development trend towards highly efficient and compact on-board battery chargers. These isolated ac–dc converters are most commonly realized using two conversion stages, combining a non-isolated power factor correction (PFC) rectifier with an isolated dc–dc converter. This, however...
