To investigate the instability issues of three-phase voltage source converters (VSCs) connected to a weak grid, this paper develops a modeling method based on the harmonic-balance approach. The nonlinear coordinate transformation in the control system would generate two sideband components. If the grid is not strong while the bandwidth of phase-locked loop (PLL) is high enough, the sideband components...
An impulsed-power supply used to eliminate arcing phenomenon and to maintain lamp luminance for field emission lamp is presented in this paper. To compact the system configuration and to reduce the system cost, the flyback topology is employed as the main circuit. Next, the phase-locked loop technique is embedded as a feedback mechanism in this study. With the proposed control mechanism, the peak...
A high voltage full-bridge resonant inverter is proposed for driving carbon nanotube field emission lamp (CNTL). First, we construct an equivalent model of CNTL to exhibit its electric characteristics. Moreover, the high frequency sinusoidal driving strategy is employed to eliminate the arcing phenomenon caused by the traditional DC driving. And then the PLL feedback controller is used to stabilize...
This paper proposes a new control approach for tracking the optimal operating frequency of a backlight inverter. First, a class E backlight module is introduced to simplify the backlight circuit and to raise the system efficiency. A piezoelectric transformer (PT) is used to drive the cold cathode fluorescent lamp (CCFL) to eliminate the drawbacks of a conventional transformer and to reduce the dimension...
This paper presents a new constant power control of high frequency electronic ballast for a metal halide lamp based on the phase-locked loop (PLL) technique. First, the PLL is employed as a feedback mechanism to improve the resonant frequency variations caused by lamps aging or an impedance difference between used lamps characteristics. The proposed system can adjust the operating frequency to sustain...

A new method is proposed in this paper to eliminate the temperature effect on a piezoelectric transformer (PT) residing inside a half-bridge backlight module which utilizes the phase-locked loop (PLL) technique. The PT is adopted to drive a cold cathode fluorescent lamp (CCFL) to eliminate the downside of a conventional transformer and to reduce the dimension, particularly the thickness, of the backlight...
Maximum-efficiency tracking control applied in the backlight module is proposed in this paper. The backlight system incorporates a phase-locked loop as a feedback mechanism to promote both the system efficiency and stability. To overcome the drawbacks of the conventional electromagnetic transformer and miniaturize the backlight module, the piezoelectric transformer is adopted for driving the cold...
