The objective of this paper is to demonstrate the design of a two-level boost converter and its controller. First, the context of the importance of such a converter is stablished. Then, the operation of an ideal converter ...

The high frequency (HF) alternating current (AC) power distribution systems have significant advantages over their DC counterparts. This paper presents the analysis and experimental evaluation of an AC/DC resonant converter, ...

The main objective of this research work is to develop a new low-cost isolated three-level ac-dc power converter topology with a reduced number of switches. Existing three-level converter topologies change ac power to dc ...

Different power converter topologies are used to perform the energy exchange between an AC grid and a DC source belonging to a hybrid electric micro-grid. A single-phase single-stage isolated AC-DC power converter is one ...

This paper proposes a thorough methodology for the steady-state characterization of input and output current ripples in Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM) interleaved power converters, under inductance mismatch. The ...

A digital control algorithm for a current-mode (CM) and a voltage-mode (VM) synchronous buck converter (SBC) is developed. In both cases, the design leads to a stable controller, even for a duty cycle larger than 50%. The ...

Improvements in the total current ripple in interleaved power converters are mainly determined by differences between the phase inductor values. Several methods have been presented in the literature to mitigate this problem, ...

This work proposes fault-tolerant schemes for open-transistor faults applied to three-phase dual active bridge converters (TPDABC), using different transformers: star-star, delta-delta, and delta-star. The proposal consists ...

A high power medium voltage converter for wind turbine system is presented in this paper. The proposal mitigates classic design tradeoffs around low voltage, high current link between the generator and the utility grid on ...
