This paper presents a design of a monolithic transformer using bond wires. The proposed transformer structure has several advantages such as high power handling and high efficiency. It shows that the measured insertion loss at the 1.9 GHz range is −1.54 dB (70%), which is higher than the spiral transformer of the same size. Also, it shows a phase error of less than 1 degree. key words: CMOS RF ...

Abstract Piezoelectric transformers are mainly commercialized for a LCD back light inverter module. With regard to laptop computers, the required output power for a piezoelectric transformer is around 5 W at present, and higher power will be needed for wider displays in the near future. In addition, modules such as AC-DC adaptors or fluorescent lamps may require a higher output power of more th...

This paper reviews a computer-aided analytical technique for predicting the power transfer capability of an AC inverter energizing a separable inductive coupling. The capability curve is obtained using a switching model of the output rectifier and a readily available software package such as MATLABB. The capability curve is useful, among other applications, for evaluating candidate separable tr...

Power transformer is one of the most important equipment in a power transmission and distribution system. This paper presents a technology to simulate differential relay in Matlab Simulink based environment for determining its behavior during various operating conditions. The results show that this simulation method can work properly and this will allow rapid modeling and testing of new algorit...

The transformer plays so important equipment in power system that engineers take more measures on the insulating oil of transformer by diagnosis. The dissolved gas analysis (DGA) is an effective technique for detecting incipient faults in oil-immersed power transformers. So the paper investigates the DGA methods, while employ the ANSI/IEEE C57.104 standards and the Key Gas diagnosis rules as ba...

This paper describes the Dissolved Gas Analysis based fault classification of Transformer using Least Square Support Vector Machine. The parameters of Support Vector Machine are optimized using Genetic Algorithm. Failure of a large power transformer not only re...

Transformer inrush currents are high-magnitude, harmonic-rich currents generated when transformer cores are driven into saturation during energization. These currents have undesirable effects, including potential damage or loss-of-life to the transformer, protective relay misoperation, and reduced power quality on the system. Controlled transformer switching can potentially eliminate these tran...

Overvoltage distribution along the transformer winding must be uniform to certify the safety of the operation of the power transformer. Influence of the parameters variation on the impulse voltage distribution (IVD) in disk winding transformer is going to be analyzed which hasn’t been analyzed on this type of winding in the previous papers. In this research, a transformer with disk winding and ...

Multilevel inverters are a source of high power, often used in medium-voltage application. Multilevel converters have received increased interest recently due to high quality output waveform and decrease the harmonic distortion in the output waveform without decreasing the inverter power output. A multilevel inverter uses a series of semiconductor power converters, thus generating higher voltag...
