A non-isolated DC/DC converter with high transfer gain is proposed in this paper. The presented converter consists of the switched inductor and three-level converters. The DC/DC power converter is three-level boost converter to convert the output voltage of the DC source into two voltage sources. The main advantages of DC/DC converter are using low voltage semiconductors and high gain voltage. ...

In this paper an asymmetrical duty cycle control strategy was proposed to the TPTL dc/dc converter. The modified converter remains all the advantages of original control strategy; meanwhile, soft-switching can be achieved using the energy stored in output filter inductance and leakage inductances of transformers (or resonant inductances).Three-phase three-level (TPTL) dc/dc converter has the ad...

LLC (Inductor-inductor-capacitor) resonant converter has lots of advantages over other type of resonant converters which include high efficiency, more reliable and have high power density. This paper presents the design and analysis of a full bridge LLC resonant converter. In addition to the operational principle, the ZVS and ZCS conditions are also explained with the DC characteristics. Simula...

This paper proposes a high efficiency DC-DC flyback converter with a resonant full-bridge inverter to use in PV systems. The flyback converter is composed of a resonant active-clamp circuit that limits the voltage stress and provides zero voltage switching (ZVS) turn-on and turn-off of the power switches. Therefore, the switching losses of the high frequency primary switches are negligible. A r...

High step-up ratio DC-DC converters with megawatt ratings are of interest in wind turbine interfaces and high-voltage direct-current systems. The modular multilevel DC-DC converter based on the standard boost converter topology but with the normal single switches replaced by a number of capacitor-clamped sub-modules. The converter is operated in resonant mode with resonance between sub-module c...

Based on the loss distribution and efficiency analysis, a comparative study between a series resonant three-port bidirectional DC-DC converter (SR-TBC) and a multi-resonant three-port bi-directional DC-DC converter (MR-TBC) is reported here. By using the Fourier equivalent analysis method in hand, the resonant current, switching current expressions, zero voltage soft switching (ZVS) conditions ...

This paper presents an off-line integrated full ballast to supply a 35 W assembly of Power LEDs. The proposed solution integrates an input PFC stage (a flyback converter operating in DCM) and a DC-DC output converter (a buck converter) into a single switch power stage, operating with peak current control. As it will be shown, this control scheme maintains the current through the load constant, ...
