A high frequency, low voltage, high current DC-DC converter is most suitable for high speed electronic circuits like microprocessors, telecommunication networks etc. This paper presents the details regarding the selection of Isolated DC-DC converter for high current applications using Current Double Rectifier (CDR) among four isolated DC-DC Converters such as flyback, forward, push-pull and two...

DC-DC converters have been applied to industrial applications widely during the past few decades. With rapid development of technology, negative output (N/O) dc-dc converters play an important role in the industrial fields, such as regenerative braking system (RBS) of DC motors for hybrid electric vehicles, signal generator and data transmission interface, neutral point clamping power electroni...

Single phase power factor correction ac-dc converters are widely used in industry for ac-dc power conversion from single phase ac mains to an required output dc voltage. In case of high power application these types of converter use an ac-dc boost converter followed by dc-dc converter. These converters has the features of excellent input power factor, continuous input and output currents, and i...

Switched-capacitor (SC) DC-DC converters have several advantages over inductive DC-DC converters in that they are easily integrated on-chip and can scale to desired power levels, rendering themselves promising for integrated voltage regulators, especially for small, low-power systems. However, many SC DC-DC converters offer only a few conversion ratios, limiting their use for systems in which e...

MODULARIZED MULTILEVEL AND Z-SOURCE POWER CONVERTER AS RENEWABLE ENERGY INTERFACE FOR VEHICLE AND GRID-CONNECTED APPLICATIONS By Dong Cao Due the energy crisis and increased oil price, renewable energy sources such as photovoltaic panel, wind turbine, or thermoelectric generation module, are used more and more widely for vehicle and grid-connected applications. However, the output of these rene...

Linear-assisted DC/DC converters are structures that allow to take advantages of the two classic alternatives in the design of power supply systems: Voltage linear regulators (classic NPN topology or LDO –low dropout–) and switching DC/DC converters. This paper shows the proposal of a modified currentmode one-cycle control for linear-assisted DC/DC converters. The modified current-mode one-cycl...

This paper deals with a comparative analysis of various converter topologies for Power Factor Correction (PFC) in switched reluctance motor drives. Hence a power factor corrected converter required for obtaining the improved PQ at the AC mains for an inverter fed SRM drive has been analyzed. The SRM when fed by a DBR with a high value of DC-link capacitor results in highly distorted supply curr...

The connection between PEM fuel cells and common DC-DC converters is examined. The analysis is model-based and done for boost, buck and buck-boost converters. In a first step, the effect of the converter ripples upon the PEM fuel cell is shown. They introduce oscillations in the fuel cell. Their appearance is explained, discussed and possibilities for their suppression are given. After that, th...
