This paper presents an interleaved class E2 dc/dc converter. In the proposed converter, N class E2 dc/dc converters are connected in parallel at the class E rectifier. The proposed converter is suitable to the low-voltage/high-current applications. Since less current flows through the each converter, the amount of the power losses on the parasitic resistances are also reduced. In addition, the ...

Small-scale wind turbines play an important role in distributed generation since customers can use their houses, farms, and business to produce electric energy. The development of the power electronics system that processes energy from small-scale is a concern due cost, simplicity, efficiency, performance trade-offs. This paper presents results applying three-phase phase-modular single-ended pr...

It is known that the total power electrical loads consume from mains sum of their two components – active and reactive. Most electric drives modern industrial enterprises up to 40% reactive energy in relation energy. This results an increased full consumption thereby increasing load on supply mains. Modern are built as follows: rectifier-direct current link-inverter asynchronous motor. The at "...

A new universal front-end PFC rectifier topology of a battery charger for Electric Vehicles (EVs) is proposed, which allows fast charging at rated and/or full power level in case 3-phase (Europe) as well 1-phase (USA) mains supply. In this regard, conventional would facilitate only one-third the operation. The based on two-level six-switch (2LB6) boost-type rectifier, extended with diode bridge...

The battery charging power electronics interface of an electric vehicle (EV) must be capable bidirectional flow to enable both grid-to-vehicle (G2V) and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) operations. In the presence a single/three-phase AC supply, front-end EV charger employs factor correction (PFC) rectifier, which should have capability facilitate V2G mode. A conventional active rectifier functions in boo...

Contactless Power Transfer (CPT) is the process of transferring power between two or more physically unconnected electric circuits or devices by means of magnetic induction. The potential application of CPT can range from power transfer to low power home and office appliances to high power industrial systems. Medical, marine, transportation, battery charging applications where physical connecti...

Herein, we present the design technique of a resonant rectifier for piezoelectric (PE) energy harvesting. We propose two diode equivalents to reduce the voltage drop in the rectifier operation, a minuscule-drop-diode equivalent (MDDE) and a low-drop-diode equivalent (LDDE). The diode equivalents are embedded in resonant rectifier integrated circuits (ICs), which use symmetric bias-flip to reduc...

Class E synchronous rectifier regulating the output voltage at a fixed switching frequency is presented, analyzed and experimentally verified. This rectifier is derived from a class E low dv/dt rectifier by replacing a rectifier diode with a controlled switch. The rectifier is driven by a sinusoidal current source, and the output voltage is regulated by vary the conduction time of the controlle...
