Typically full-bridge (FB) converter is used as DC-DC converters for ICT equipment such as routers or servers,. FB converter has essential problem which occurs surge voltage associated with the recovery phenomenon of secondary-side diode. Attaching snubber circuit is the poplar solution, but the circuit occurs another problem such as increasing of the size of circuit and degradation of power efficiency...
Output-inductor-less full-bridge converter for a High-Voltage Direct-Current power distribution system has been proposed. This proposed circuit topology suppresses the surge voltage due to the secondary-side diode's recovery, and miniaturizes the converter because the number of circuit components is reduced. On the other hand, some problems occur, such as the increasing switching-loss of primary switches...
In this paper, a high power-density output-inductor-less full-bridge converter for the HVDC power distribution system is proposed. The new reduction techniques of switching loss and noise in the output-inductor-less full-bridge converter by using SiC-MOSFETs are applied. As the result, the power loss is reduced by 20W in a wide load range, and the noise is also reduced. Furthermore, a high power density...
The Dual Active Bridge (DAB) DC-DC converter is one of the most popular circuits for bi-directional applications because of simple structure. However, DAB DC-DC converter has few problems such as the surge voltage and hard switching in specific conditions. These problems are caused by the relationship between the output power and phase difference, which causes device breakdown and deterioration of...
This paper proposes a power-loss reduction technique for a kW-scale isolated dc-dc converter, which installs a novel PWM control to achieve the soft-switching of primary side MOS-FETs. As a result, the efficiency is achieved over 90% in a wide load range. Moreover, the temperature of the primary side MOS-FETs can be reduced by 30 degrees when compared with the conventional method, and the power-density...
A high-voltage full bridge dc-dc converter has a big problem of high-voltage surge occurrence across secondary-side rectifying diodes. In order to solve this problem, a simple solution with a snubber capacitor has been proposed. This technique provides a prominent effect of surge-voltage suppression. On the other hand, it deteriorates the control characteristics of this converter. In this paper, the...
In an isolated DC-DC converter utilized in the HVDC power distribution system, a large surge voltage occurs across the secondary-side diodes due to the transformer's leakage inductance, and then the diodes with a large withstand voltage are required. However, those diodes cause a lot of power loss. In this paper, a simple surge snubber with prominent surge suppression capability is examined, and the...
