In this paper, a multiphase sliding mode (MPSM) control method with a master–slave structure is proposed and analyzed in order to suppress ripples at input terminals or output terminals in DC/DC converter applications. With the proposed MPSM, the switching frequency of a multiphase DC/DC converter does not need to be operating such a high switching frequency as adopted in a conventional sliding...

This paper shows the design and control methods of the bidirectional DC-DC converter to generate the proper DC-link voltage of a PMSM drive. Conventionally, because the controllable power of the PWM based voltage source inverter is limited by its DC-link voltage, the DC-DC converter is used for boosted DC-link voltage if the inverter source cannot generate enough operating voltage for the PMSM ...

This paper presents a new method for theoretical stability analysis of a bidirectional dual full bridge DC-DC converter with triple phase-shift control. The developed approach is analytically sound and generally applicable when compared with the existing approaches, which are by and large based on computer simulation. The operating process of a bidirectional converter is multi-stage and nonline...

The proposed zero-current switching switched-capacitor (ZCS SC) DC-DC converter is an innovative bi-directional power flow control conversion scheme. A zero-current switching switched-capacitor stepup/step-down bi-directional converter is presented that can improve the current stress problem during bi-directional power flow control processing. It can provide a high voltage conversion ratio of n...

The central part of an energy storage system is the DC-DC converter which connects the ultracapacitor pack or the battery pack and a DC bus of an energy system. In this paper the bi-directional converter which operates in discontinuous conduction mode is designed in order to reduce the costs and remove the current control loop in each phase. High current ripples associated with this mode operat...

Generally two-stage converters are less efficient for low-voltage systems. Bridge rectifiers are having disadvantage of ripple current generation at load generation. In this paper an efficient ac-dc converter is employed for directly conversion of low rating ac supply to high voltage dc power with high efficiency. PI controller is used for Control technique to have efficient operation, and is h...

In this paper a single-inductor dual-output (SIDO) buck-boost PFC converter operating in critical conduction mode (CRM) is proposed. By multiplexing a single inductor, each output of SIDO buck-boost converter can be regulated independently. Compared with conventional two-stage multiple output converter, SIDO buck-boost PFC converter benefits from significant overall cost saving, small size and ...

This paper proposes a Z-source converter based flyback converter with a new active clamp control method. With this control methodology, the energy in the leakage inductance can be fully recycled. The absorbed leakage energy transferred to the output and input side will achieve zero voltage switching for the main switch. Thus, switching loss can be reduced. A Z-source converter network is incorp...

This article shows the proposal of a linear–assisted converter or linear–&–switching hybrid converter with a constant switching frequency for photovoltaic solar DC-DC regulators. The control loop of the system is based on the current–mode technique. The main disadvantage of a converter with current– mode control is the inherent instability of the loop when switch duty ratios are greater than 0....
