A dual-output LLC resonant converter using pulse frequency modulation (PFM) and asymmetrical pulse width modulation (APWM) can achieve tight output voltage regulation, high power density, and high cost-effectiveness. However, an improper resonant tank design cannot achieve tight cross regulation of the dual-output channels at the worst-case load conditions. In addition, proper magnetizing inductance is required to achieve zero voltage switching (ZVS) of the power MOSFETs in the LLC resonant converter. In this paper, voltage gain of modulation methods and steady state operations are analyzed to implement the hybrid control method. In addition, the operation of the hybrid control algorithm is analyzed to achieve tight cross regulation performance. From this analysis, the design methodology of the resonant tank and the magnetizing inductance are proposed to compensate the output error of both outputs and to achieve ZVS over the entire load range. The cross regulation performance is verified with simulation and experimental results using a 190 W prototype converter.

A bidirectional CLLC resonant converter (CLLC-BRC) based on GaN transistors is analyzed and designed in this paper. Similar resonant topologies are listed and commented on, with the CLLC topology showing competitiveness in bidirectional energy transmission. The analysis of the aforementioned converter has been provided, including the reveal of resonant frequencies of the CLLC topology and an improved zero-voltage switching (ZVS) condition with operation principles of the reverse mode and relevant parasitic parameters taken into account. The design methodology of the aforementioned converter based on pulse frequency modulation (PFM) is further discussed in detail. A prototype with a rated power of 400 W and a maximal operating frequency that is larger than 0.5 MHz was built to verify the proposed design methodology. The highest conversion efficiency of the prototype was 97.02% in the forward mode, and it was 95.96% in the reverse mode.

Dual interleaved LLC resonant converter with half bridge topology of main circuit characterized by high switching frequency (500 kHz), high power density (60 W/inch3) and high efficiency (above 96 %) over entire operational range (20 %–100 %) is described. Focus was given on the practical design of power converter, which will be able to fulfil requirements on wide load range operation characterized by upcoming normative. Since proposed topology is based on dual interleaved LLC converter, the resonant component´s critical tolerance was also investigated to secure reliable and optimal operational point. Consequently, proposals for elimination of intolerance negative impact are also described. The results of theoretical analysis were verified directly through experimental measurements. Experimental results are finally compared with upcoming industrial standard 80 Plus Titanium.

In complex asks such as sewing or assembly, where a robot has a mechanical interaction with its environments, we cannot expect to get a good result only by using the conventional positioning control of the robot. This is because that even the smallest positioning error may cause a large reaction force between the robot and its object, then it will stop the motion required for the task or, the worst case, it will damage the object as well as the robot itself. From this point of view, various kinds of control methods which enable a robot to move compliantly to avoid producing an excessive force when there is an interaction between the robot and objects In this paper we will propose a hybrid control method which can control both position and force of the manipulator in the given task-oriented coordinates. We can expect to have a good task quality by using this method compared with the conventional positioning control. The experiments of some actual tasks using an articulated manipulator with 2 d.o.f. will be also shown to demonstrate the feasibility and applicability of the proposed method.
