This paper presents performance characteristics of a novel soft switching three-phase utility frequency AC (UFAC) to high frequency AC (HFAC) direct power converter with PFC function for industrial induction heating (IH) applications. The proposed "simple three-phase system" consists of a single-phase UFAC to HFAC direct converter unit in each phase, three-phase low pass filter and three-phase...
This paper presents a one stage circuit topology for a double buck chopper type single phase PFC converter with active power filtering function in a utility AC grid side and DC output power quality, which can realize much smaller in reactor size and lighter in its weight, along with two unique channel control schemes. The main advantageous point of the newly-proposed PFC converter includes that the...
In this paper, a new single-phase power factor corrector (PFC) based on the Sheppard-Taylor topology is proposed. Compared to conventional buck, boost or buck-boost PFCs, this topology allows a better current tracking at the AC side, with a relatively reduced voltage at the DC side. Consequently, the high frequency AC filters required by the buck PFCs are avoided, and the voltage stresses on the boost...
This paper presents a single-stage power factor corrected ac-dc converter based on a half-bridge topology. The proposed converter make use of the charge-pump and interleaving techniques resulting in near unity power factor and ripple free input current, meeting the IEC 61000-3-2 regulations for wide-load ranges. It is also a cost effective and competitive solution for 100 - 600 W applications where...
This paper presents an efficient, small-sized, and cost-effective single-switch power-factor-correction (PFC) scheme for high-frequency electronic ballasts. The circuit topology originates from the integration of a buck-boost power-factor-correction converter and a class-E electronic ballast. Only one active power switch is commonly used by both power stages to save the cost of active switches and...
In this paper, a novel common-source type boost-forward single-stage PFC topology was proposed. By adding a second wind to the transformer, and using two active-clamp switches connected in common-source type, an active-clamp ZVS (zero voltage switching) could be obtained with a simple PWM control and output voltage feedback. The proposed topology was experimentally verified through the construction...
