This paper presents the functions of Series-Loaded Resonant Converter (SLRC). Series Loaded Resonant DC-DC converter is a type of soft-switching topology widely known for providing improved efficiency. Zero voltage switching (ZVS) buck converter is more preferable over hard switched buck converter for low power, high frequency DC-DC conversion applications. Zero Voltage switching techniques wil...

Frequency converters provide means for the energy efficient flow and pressure control in pumping and fan systems by varying the motor speed. Besides speed variation, a modern frequency converter can estimate the state and performance of system operation without additional measurement sensors. This ability provides several possibilities to optimize pumping or fan system operation and the resulti...

This paper presents an interleaved class E2 dc/dc converter. In the proposed converter, N class E2 dc/dc converters are connected in parallel at the class E rectifier. The proposed converter is suitable to the low-voltage/high-current applications. Since less current flows through the each converter, the amount of the power losses on the parasitic resistances are also reduced. In addition, the ...

A soft-switching topology for high power buck converter is proposed. Zero-current turn-on and zero-voltage turn-off is achieved without auxiliary switches. All active switches in the converter transmit power to the load equally. Converter control is simple despite four active switches. Converter operation is described and DC analysis is carried out. All operation modes are identified. The condi...

This study proposed a cost effective method of wind energy conversion system (WECS) incorporating permanent magnet generator (PMG) and single stage power converter. Axial flux PMG can generate rated voltage and frequency even at a lower speed and hence more suitable for direct drive WECS. To get desired voltage and frequency in continuously varying wind conditions, a new type of WECS with singl...

An analog-to-digital converter incorporating a distributed track-and-hold preprocessing combined with folding and interpolation techniques has been designed in CMOS technology. The presented extension of the well known folding concept has resulted in a 75 MHz maximum full-scale input signal frequency. A signal-to-noise ratio of 44 dB is obtained for this frequency. The 8-b A/D converter achieve...

Main task of power semiconductor converter is transfer of electrical energy from its input to the output and to the load. This energy flow is provided by control of the switching process of one or more semiconductor devices. Based on converter application it is necessary to choose correct control algorithm for selected switching frequency of converter. Algorithm itself has to be utilized with s...

A new phase-controlled resonant inverter is obtained by paralleling the ac loads of two identical parallel resonant inverters. A phase shift between the drive signals of the two inverters controls the amplitude of the output voltage of the new inverter. A voltage-driven rectifier is used as an ac load of the inverter which results in a phase-controlled parallel resonant dc-dc converter. A frequ...
