Focus is on the design and development of an auxiliary power supply converter for HVDC and FACTS applications, utilising integrated gate-commutated thyristors. Due to relatively high requirements for gate drive power and operating voltage of 2.8 kV, special measures have to be considered when designing such systems. The tapped-inductor buck converter topology was chosen as the first non-isolated conversion...
A high-voltage tapped-inductor buck converter utilizing a novel autonomous high-voltage valve is presented in this paper. Its application as auxiliary power supply for high-power cascaded-converter submodules is discussed, followed by a presentation of the most challenging problems in designing a low-power high-voltage step-down converter. The TI-buck converter topology is analyzed, which together...
This paper firstly presents a discussion of the requirements for an auxiliary power supply for high-power modular multilevel converter submodules. Next, some of the most challenging problems in designing a low power high voltage step-down converter are presented. Further, a suitable topology, the tapped-inductor buck converter, that overcomes most of the problems is analyzed. Both analytical expressions...
