Power factor is the ratio of true power or watts to apparent power or volt amps. The rapid placement of power electronic system in residential, commercial and industrial sides has energized the longing of an improved power factor to reduce the loss and cost. Good power factor deducts the losses and costs and ensure the longevity of electrical mechanism at a greater extent. Continuous researches...

A modeling based on the practical switches with finite turn-on, turn-off, delay, storage and reverse recovery times is proposed. The switching effects on the state equation, system stability, dc gain and efficiency are shown for the boost, buck and buck-boost converters. The effect of switching time variation by current on system stability is given as an extension of the storage time modulation...

This paper presents a buck-boost converter-based bipolar pulse generator, which is able to generate bipolar exponential pulses across a resistive load. The concept of the proposed approach depends on operating the involved buck-boost converters in discontinuous current conduction mode with high-voltage gain and enhanced efficiency. A full design of the pulse generator and its passive components...

In this paper, KY converter and voltage gain enhanced KY converter are included. A KY converter is a voltage step up converter, it can be considered as a buck converter along with synchronous rectification. In general, a KY converter consists of two MOSFET switches. To obtain higher voltage gain we can adopt different methods. Some of these techniques, advantages and disadvantages of each metho...

This paper presents a transformer less ac/dc converter which can be used in voltages between 90230 Vrms. Instead of a transformer, this topology consists of a buck dc/dc converter and a buck boost dc/dc converter. By the absence of transformer, reduce the complexity of converter and it is cost effective. Buck dc/dc converter keeps o/p voltage below the line voltage; limit the leakage current. B...

This proposal proposes a DC/DC Buck Boost converter which has been used as a smooth starter for a DC Permanent Magnet Motor. In the existing system the DC/DC Buck Converter is used which provide the output less than the input Signal. Using buck converter it is difficult to increase the value of the input signal. Hence DC/DC BuckBoost Converter used from which it is possible to get both the incr...

Energy-efficient, linear RF power amplifiers (PAs) are critical for achieving longer battery life in state-of-the-art radio transceivers because typically they determine and dominate the power consumption of the system. In this paper, an adaptive power management scheme using a novel dual-mode, noninverting, buck-boost converter targeted for code-division-multiple-access (CDMA) RF PA is present...

Solid-state switch-mode rectification converters have reached a matured level for improving power quality in terms of power-factor correction (PFC), reduced total harmonic distortion at input ac mains and precisely regulated dc output in buck, boost, buck–boost and multilevel modes with unidirectional and bidirectional power flow. In this paper, an improved power quality converter employing con...

The paper presents a new methodology for optimizing the design of DC-DC converters. The magnitudes that we take into account are efficiency, ripples, bandwidth, and RHP zero placement. We apply a geometric programming approach, because the variables are positives and the constraints can be expressed in a posynomial form. This approach has all the advantages of convex optimization. We apply the ...
