A buck–boost-type unity power factor rectifier is proposed in this paper. The main advantage of the proposed rectifier over the conventional buck–boost type is that it can perform input power factor correction (PFC) over a wider voltage conversion range. With a single switch, a fast well-regulated output voltage is achieved with a zero-current switch at turn-on. Moreover, the switch voltage str...

In this paper, nonlinear phenomena appearing in DC-DC converters are analyzed by using a discrete time nonlinear map (the A-switching map). We then propose a feedback control method improving switch-mode power supplies electromagnetic compatibility (spectral peaks compliance). To confirm the efficiency of this new and simple method, the map is derived in closed form from the system of nonlinear...

A dynamic hysteresis control of the buck converter for achieving high slew-rate response to disturbances is proposed. The hysteresis band is derived from the output capacitor current that predicts the output voltage magnitude after a hypothesized switching action. Four switching criteria are formulated to dictate the state of the main switch. The output voltage can revert to the steady state in...

----Research in nonlinear dynamics and complexity has made remarkable progress in recent years. Almost all power electronic circuits exhibit some kind of nonlinear behavior e.g., quasi-periodicity, subharmonic oscillations, bifurcation, chaos. The aim of this paper is to investigate the nonlinear phenomenon and chaotic behavior in a DC-DC buck converter. The derivation of the discrete-time map ...

Abstract: In this paper a new topology of high step-down dc-dc converter is proposed. The proposed converter uses an interleaved structure with one phase using a traditional buck converter and the second phase uses its inverted version. By this technique a high step down voltage conversion can be achieved as compared to the traditional interleaved buck converter. Operating principle and steady ...

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 ...

This paper presents development of an optimal control strategy for a hybrid photovoltaic/battery energy storage (PV/BES) system. The fluctuations at the DC bus voltage due to voltage sag were mitigated by using charge/discharge capability of the BES through the DC/DC buck/boost converter. Furthermore, an optimization of system control parameters responsible for DC bus voltage regulation within ...

This work deals with the design and simulation of buck converter inverter fed PMBLDC drive system. Permanent Magnet Brushless DC Motor (PMBLDC) is one of the best electrical drives that has increasing popularity due to their high efficiency, reliability, good dynamic response and very low maintenance.

This paper proposes a new resonant gate driver circuit for a soft switching synchronous buck converter in a fixed load condition. The switching energy can be fully recovered during current commutation phase in the gate driver while the diode conduction losses in the low and high side switches can be substantially reduced by employing additional L and C resonant in the circuit. Using PSpice simu...
