Releasing Process

This paper presents a micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) processing technology for Aluminum Nitride (AlN) Lamb-wave resonators (LWRs). Two LWRs with different frequencies of 402.1 MHz and 2.097 GHz by varying the top interdigitated (IDT) periods were designed and fabricated. To avoid the shortcomings of the uncontrollable etching of inactive areas during the releasing process and to improve the fabrication yield, a thermal oxide layer was employed below the platted polysilicon sacrificial layer, which could define the miniaturized release cavities well. In addition, the bottom Mo electrode that was manufactured had a gentle inclination angle, which could contribute to the growth of the high-quality AlN piezoelectric layer above the Mo layer and effectively prevent the device from breaking. The measured results show that the IDT-floating resonators with 12 μm and 2 μm electrode periods exhibit a motional quality factor (Qm) as high as 4382 and 1633. The series resonant frequency (fs)·Qm values can reach as high as 1.76 × 1012 and 3.42 × 1012, respectively. Furthermore, Al is more suitable as the top IDT material of the AlN LWRs than Au, and can contribute to achieving an excellent electrical performances due to the smaller density, smaller thermo-elastic damping (TED), and larger acoustic impedance difference between Al and AlN.

The switching loss of the secondary side rectifiers in LLC resonant converters can have a noticeable impact on the overall efficiency of the complete power supply and constrain the upper limit of the optimum switching frequencies of the converter. Two are the main contributions to the switching loss in the secondary side rectifiers: on the one hand, the reverse recovery loss (Qrr), most noticeably while operating above the series resonant frequency; and on the other hand, the output capacitance (Coss) hysteresis loss, not previously reported elsewhere, but present in all the operating modes of the converter (under and above the series resonant frequency). In this paper, a new technique is proposed for the measurement of the switching losses in the rectifiers of the LLC and other isolated converters. Moreover, two new circuits are introduced for the isolation and measurement of the Coss hysteresis loss, which can be applied to both high-voltage and low-voltage semiconductor devices. Finally, the analysis is experimentally demonstrated, characterizing the switching loss of the rectifiers in a 3 kW LLC converter (410 V input to 50 V output). Furthermore, the Coss hysteresis loss of several high-voltage and low-voltage devices is experimentally verified in the newly proposed measurement circuits.

Intensive utilization of Induction Heating (IH) innovations can be seen in numerous areas such as manufacturing industries, domestic or house hold and medicinal applications. The development of high switching frequency switches has encouraged the structure of high frequency inverters which are the key component of IH technology. Controlling the power output in a high frequency inverter for IH application is relatively complicated. This paper focuses on designing and developing a typical series resonance inverter and control it by FPGA-based controller. A MOSFET switch-based DC to AC converter is designed and Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS)-based switching strategy is accomplished to acquire less stress on switching devices and greater conversion efficiency. In this technique, secondary switched capacitor cell was proposed for resonant inverter of high frequency. To optimize the performance of the proposed inverter, the FPGA-based control system is implemented. Higher power density is the greatest advantage of this topology. The experimental and simulation model of the proposed series resonant inverter (SRI) for heating applications is developed and simulated using MATLAB/Simulink software.

This paper presents the performance analysis of proposed circuit of Single-Phase Reduced Order AC-AC Resonant Frequency Converter. AC-AC converter is minimized number of switches for multi-operation and resonant converter is converter work on the principle of ZCS (Zero Current Switching) and ZVS (Zero Voltage Switching) combining both topology, which provide better output with reduce THD and switching losses. A mathematical modeling is done for proper value of used parameters in converter. The output of converter is improved by applying Modulation technique in this converter we are using Trapezoidal Pulse Width Modulation (TPWM) for the better performance and control. THD of the converter is calculated by using MATLAB simulation software. MATALB simulation of AC –AC Resonate Frequency Converter is done by using MOSFET as switch.
