In hard-switched converters, the switching frequency is limited by switching losses and EMI problems. However, high-switching frequency is necessary to reduce the converter size. Hence, soft switching is imperative at high switching frequency to obtain good efficiency. Push–pull converter is a preferred topology at medium power level. This paper proposes a novel resonant transition topology for...

A single-phase ac-to-dc converter using threephase modified series-parallel resonant converter is proposed in this paper. The three-phase resonant converter is analyzed using Fourier series approach. The design curves for a resonant converter of 2.5 kW rating are plotted. The converter components are selected based on the design curves. The converter is simulated for different load conditions u...

high output power density VHF converter has become important in recent years. This output power density of the converter is experiencing an adverse effect resulted from the applied switching frequency. In addition, the frequency which is higher than 20 MHz will no longer be applicable on the discreet SMT technology hence lowers the output power density. Thus, further improvement on circuit anal...

LLC resonant converter is most suitable resonant converter for front end DC-DC applications. Integrated magnetic, ZVS and high frequency operation, make the converter more compact and efficient. In this paper brief analysis of the LLC ...

In this paper a new topology of flying capacitor based multicell converter with reduced switches has been introduced. Compared with conventional multicell converters (Flying Capacitor Multicell and Stacked Multicell converters), the proposed converter doubles the number of output voltage levels and the RMS of output voltage by canceling the midpoint of DC source while the number of high frequen...

This work introduces a new non-isolated buck-boost DC-DC converter. Interleaved configuration of the suggested structure increases the voltage conversion ratio. The voltage rate of the suggested converter can be stepped-up and stepped down for lower values of duty-cycle, which causes to decrease in the conduction losses of the system. The voltage conversion ratio of the recommended structure is...

This paper presents a 0.35μm CMOS frequency to voltage converter for portable applications which is based on a operating principle comprises a differentiator, voltage to current converter, two RMS-DC converters, and a divider. Results show that the converter has a power consumption of 11.89mW operating at 3.3V supply voltage. This converter can accurately convert a sinusoidal signal frequency i...

variation of frequency and voltage by load changes in a microgrid is a challenge in droop control method. centralized restoration frequency or voltage in a microgrid requires communication link and therefore affects the advantage of decentralized droop control such as reliability, simplicity and inexpensiveness. this paper proposes a decentralized method that restores the frequency of a microgr...

The paper presents an optimum design procedure for the controller used in the frequency converter of a variable speed wind turbine (VSWT) driven doubly fed asynchronous generator (DFAG) by using Proportional-Integral (PI) controller. The cascaded control is frequently used in the control of the frequency converter using the proportional PI controllers. The setting of the parameters of the PI co...
