A Comparative Study of Soft-Switched CCM Boost Rectifiers and Interleaved Variable-Frequency DCM Boost Rectifier
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper three single-phase, high-power-factor rectifier implementations were evaluated on a comparative basis. Specifically, a zero-voltage-switching continuousconduction-mode boost rectifier, a zero-current-zero-voltageswitching continuous-conduction-mode boost rectifier, and an interleaved variable-frequency discontinuous-conduction-mode boost rectifier were compared with respect to their efficiencies, compliance with the EN61000-3-2 specifications, complexity, and costs. The comparisons were done for the single-phase input voltage of 90 Vrms – 264 Vrms and for 0 – 1.2 kW output-power range.
