Design Considerations for Achieving ZVS in a Half Bridge Inverter that Drives a Piezoelectric Transformer with No Series Inductor

چکیده
A general procedure for maintaining soft switching in inductor-less half-bridge piezoelectric transformer (PT) inverter was analyzed by applying the equivalent circuit of the PT device. Soft switching capability of the PT was delineated and detailed guidelines are given for the load and frequency boundaries, voltage transfer function and the output voltage that will keep the operation under ZVS conditions. The analysis takes into account the maximum power dissipation of the PT, which is used to bind the permissible power transfer through the device. The analytical results for the half-bridge inductor-less PT inverter where verified by simulation and experiments for a radial vibration mode PT.

Design of a Radial Mode Piezoelectric Transformer for a Charge Pump Electronic Ballast with High Power Factor and Zero Voltage Switching
Electrical Engineering (ABSTRACT) In a conventional electronic ballast for a fluorescent lamp, inductor-capacitor-transformer tank circuit is used. A Piezoelectric Transformer (PT) can potentially be used to replace such a tank circuit to save space and cost. In the past, ballast design using a PT requires selecting a PT from available samples which are normally not matched to specific applicat...
