A distributed input multi-port topology is proposed in this work based on the use of a Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC). The Distributed Input (DIMMC) application an MMC to multi- phases systems, such as multiport generators or transformers. converter devised for high voltage and high-power applications with inputs ship electric propulsion systems industrial available both ac dc loads. main c...

As a result of advances in solid-state power electronics, DC power distribution has found a widespread usage due to its advantages. DC/DC converters, which are mainly used for voltage regulation, are fundamental components of DC power distribution systems. This paper presents a peak power controlled DC/DC converter design based on two-layer hierarchical closed loop control strategy for active D...

Metal Halide High Intensity Discharge lamps are becoming popular because of its high efficacy. The operating characteristic of Metal Halide High Intensity Discharge (HID) lamps is complex as it has several stage of operation. So electric control system is required to control the operation of metal halide high intensity discharge lamps. Electric control system involves a number of non linear dev...

Most of the ac-ac converters used in home-appliances are based on single-output dc-link inverters, which provides a cost-effective and straight-forward solution. However, this twostage power conversion decreases power density and efficiency. Direct ac-ac conversion has been thoroughly studied in the past. However, the complex control scheme and higher cost has prevented it from being used in lo...

The objective of this project is to create a low power A/D converter␣ to be employed in a battery power ed wireless sensor. The key requirement of the converter is that it be able to cater to a wide␣ range of input data-rate (1sample/ s to >1Msample/s), and produce a␣ r esolution ranging from 8 bits to as high as 16bits, consuming the lowest possible power consumption. A possible subset of appl...

This paper presents the operational characteristics of a high voltage flyback converter with resonant elements. In high voltage low power applications, the effect of a transformer’s stray capacitance might be the most important factor that influences the overall performance of the circuit. A detailed mode analysis and the design procedure are presented in designing the high voltage flyback conv...
