Techniques for implementing micropower analog filters using digital CMOS process technology are described. PMOS devices operating in accumulation are used for the integration capacitors, and the voltage swing across them is limited by employing current-mode operation using the log domain approach. The latter is implemented using enhanced lateral bipolar transistors. A second-order low-pass filt...

This paper proposes a new floating gate MOSFET (FGMOS) based voltage-controlled grounded resistor. In the proposed circuit FGMOS operating in the ohmic region is linearized by another conventional MOSFET operating in the saturation region. The major advantages of FGMOS based voltage-controlled grounded resistor (FGVCGR) are simplicity, low total harmonic distortion (THD), and low power consumpt...

In this manuscript, the author has tried to analyze a study of Variable Frequency Drives. Variable frequency drives are energy saving drives. But they generate harmonics generates. Harmonics introduced by any means affect the performance parameters of any system The presence of harmonics is the system for a long duration & that, too, of higher order affect the various parameters in a Power dist...

This paper present a MATLAB-SIMULINK model of a single phase 2.5 KVA, 240V RMS controlled PV VSI (Photovoltaic Voltage Source Inverter) inverter using IGBTs (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor). The behavior of output voltage, output current, and the total harmonic distortion (THD), with the variation in input dc blocking capacitor (Cdc), for linear and non-linear load has been analyzed. The val...

A new ripple feedback filter is presented for Analog/Digital mixed-mode amplifier (MMA) among audio applications. MMA is composed of two amplifiers: one is analog amplifier responsible for high fidelity and the other is digital switching amplifer in charge of high efficiency. To improve both total harmonic distortion (THD) and efficiency, passive RLC filter is needed at the output side of the d...

Space vector modulation (SVM) has received wide acceptance due to many benefits over other techniques such as higher output voltages, lower total harmonic distortion (THD), high-efficiency and flexible to be implemented in vector control systems. In digital implementation, the SVM equations can be optimally computed by eliminate the use of complex forms. In this paper, the simple SVM based on t...

An electrolytic capacitors used as a decoupling reservoir which restrict the lifetime of photovoltaic (PV) micro inverters. This has led to the development of several improved decoupling circuits that can reduce the capacitor value to allow the use of non electrolytic types. The project focus on selection of the minimum decoupling capacitor value for the proper operation of discontinuous conduc...

This paper presents a novel single-phase high-powerfactor (HPF) pulsewidth-modulated (PWM) boost rectifier featuring soft commutation of the active switches at zero current (ZC). It incorporates the most desirable properties of conventional PWM and soft-switching resonant techniques. The input current shaping is achieved with average current mode control and continuous inductor current mode. Th...

A new topology of single-phase two stage AC to DC SEPIC converter in step down configuration with high efficiency at extremely low voltage gain is proposed with high input power factor and low input current total harmonic distortion. In this work, proposal has be given to modify conventional two stage AC to DC SEPIC converter introducing a switched capacitor branch in between the stages. The in...
