A general-purpose clocked gate driver integrated circuit (IC) to generate an arbitrary gate waveform is proposed to provide a universal platform for fine-grained gate waveform optimization handling various power transistors. The fabricated IC with a 0.18 μm Bipolar-CMOS-DMOS process has 63 P-type MOS (PMOS) and 63 N-type MOS (NMOS) driver transistors on a chip whose activation patterns are controlled...
A general-purpose clocked gate driver (CGD) IC to generate an arbitrary gate waveform is proposed to provide a universal platform for fine-grained gate waveform optimization handling various power transistors. The fabricated IC with 0.18µm BCD process has 63 PMOS and 63 NMOS driver transistors on a chip whose activation patterns are controlled by 6-bit digital signals and 25-MHz clock (= 40-ns time...
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...
We propose a multi input voltage and multiple output voltage DC-DC converter using H-bridge converter for power supply on chip. We analyzed the operation mode of the H-bridge converter and also propose the suitable operation mode for power supply on chip. The proposed POLs realize stable output voltage and high efficiency over the wide range through digital control.
A power supply on chip (SoC) has been attracted attentions of many researchers because it can realize ultimate minimization of the power supply. It is quite promising for ICT applications because its features, such as smaller volume, high frequency response, and so on, fit for requirement of POL used in ICT equipment. In this paper, we propose the novel concept of digitally controlled multiple output...
This paper proposes the simple and seamless operation technique for bi-directional LLC resonant converter. Generally, bi-directional operation of LLC resonant converter is complicated and difficult to control. Because, the switching frequency has to be changed across fsr (series resonant frequency) and the switching sequences (the switching timing between high voltage side and low voltage side) has...
This paper presents the novel load regulation technique for parallel connected POLs which reads for power supply on chip (power-SoC). In power-SoC, many POLs are implemented on the same chip. In this case, the conventional loop control (feedback control) may have some problem such as oscillation. The proposed strategy regulates the output voltage by changing number of the working POLs under fixed...
This paper proposes the new LLC converter with unique control method. Generally, LLC resonant converter, which is controlled by PFM, has the drawback of (1) difficulty of PWM controllability, (2) difficulty of constant current limitation, and (3) narrow input voltage range limitation. These difficulties come from the resonant operation. In order to overcome those drawbacks, a hybrid control of PFM...
This paper proposes the simple and seamless operation technique for bi-directional LLC converter. Generally, bi-directional operation of LLC converter is complicated and difficult to control. Because, the switching frequency has to be changed across fsr (series resonant frequency) and the switching sequences has to be also changed due to resonant characteristics. In order to simplify the switching...
