In this paper, a voltage clamp circuit consists of diode and transformer, which reduces the transient peak switch voltage of the class E amplifier with single dc power supply, is proposed. This clamp circuit clamps the output voltage of the class E amplifier when the amplitude of output voltage goes over the maximum permissible value. Simulation results showed that the proposed diode clamp circuit...
Nowadays, there are several difficulties are met in the selection of appropriate conditions, place of use, and purpose of photovoltaic (PV) systems. The reason is that electrical power output of PV system shows a non-linear variation, unlike other applications, depending on the internal resistance of electrical devices (loads) as well as radiation intensity and environmental temperature. Therefore,...
This paper presents an analysis of characteristics of choke-input-type diode rectifier circuit on three-phase rectangular-voltage-fed distribution system. The validity of the analysis has been confirmed by experiments using the 2.4 kW prototype.
The purpose of this paper is to present a novel digital control boundary current mode ac-dc converter. The ac-dc converter is widely used as power factor correction. The ac-dc converter that operates in a boundary current mode has the some advantages. It has capability to achieve low current distortion. The unity power factor is theoretically obtained by the boundary current mode control. In the proposed...
An anion-conducting polymer (ACP) has been used as an electrolyte material of solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) and the basic electrochemical properties of DSCs have been examined in this study. Initial photocurrent-voltage characteristics of the DSC prepared with ACP (DSC-S) were inferior to those of the DSC prepared with a general liquid electrolyte (DSC-Liq), but DSC-S exhibited better...
So far, the operating characteristics of asymmetry type current resonant converter as LLC converter are discussed in detail. However, the detail operating characteristics discussions of symmetry type resonant converter have not been carried out. This paper investigates the AC characteristics of symmetry type bi-directional current resonant converter, and their soft-switching regions are also investigated.
This paper clarifies the principle of the surge voltage in the diode rectifier that is connected to the transformer in the isolated DC-DC converter. In addition, the design method of the RC snubber circuit is discussed by using the equivalent circuit that is consisting of the transformer, the snubber circuit and the diode. Finally, the experimental results are provided to validate the design method.
This paper proposes a new two-stage converter with a coupling capacitor and a coupled inductor. In order to downsize the two-stage converter, two inductors are tightly coupled together. Circuit operation is described in detail. Steady state analysis is performed and confirmed by experiments. It is clarified that the proposed converter has advantages of larger voltage conversion ratio and higher power...
