AC-DC conversion is required in many applications, and some of them isolation strictly required, certainly while maintaining characteristics such as a high power factor low input current THD. In this paper, an converter, comprising full-bridge diode rectifier dual-active-bridge (DAB) utilized to fulfill these characteristics. The used modulation makes the converter behave resistive load, output...

Major constraints while using motor drive system are efficiency and cost. Commutation in the conventional DC motors is carried out by commutator which is rotating part placed on the rotor and brushes. Due to these mechanical parts, conventional DC motor consist high amount of losses. Brushless DC (BLDC) Motors are very extensively used motors these days because of its advantages over convention...

ABSTRACT: In this paper a bridgeless Cuk rectifier is used for Power factor correction (PFC) for a BLDC motor. Bridgeless Cuk converter has only two semiconductor switches in the current flowing path. During each interval of the switching cycle it result in less conduction losses and an improved thermal management compared to the conventional Cuk PFC rectifier. To achieve almost unity power fac...

Power Electronics have proved itself as an encompassing field for power generation and 1IlaI1ag4:me Traditionally conversion of ac to de vo~es has been dominated by phase controlled or diode rectifiers. The ideal character of the input current draWnby these rectifiers creates number of problems like increase in .. power, high input current harmonics and low input power factor, lower rectifier e...

This application note is intended as an addendum to the Design Reference Manual DRM064 ([1]) and describes implementation of an average current mode control of Power Factor Correction (PFC) on MC9S12E128. The DRM064 deals with the design of a Single Phase On-Line UPS using an MC9S12E128. It includes control of a power factor correction (PFC), a DC/DC step up converter, a battery charger, and an...

This paper introduces a high precise direct current (DC) negative high voltage power supply. The supply’s output voltage is 25kV and its maximal output current is 100mA. The power supply uses BOOST converter for power factor correction and voltage regulation. It converts DC to high frequency (HF) alternating current (AC) square wave with phase-shifted full bridge. The voltage of the AC square w...
