The hybrid three-phase rectifiers (HTR) consist of parallel associations of two rectifiers (rectifier 1 and rectifier 2), each one of them with a distinct operation, while the sum of their input currents forms a sinusoidal or multilevel waveform. In general, rectifier 1 is a GRAETZ (full bridge) (can be combined with a BOOST converter) and rectifier 2 is combined with a DC-DC converter. In this HTR contest, this paper is intended to answer some important questions about those hybrid rectifiers. To obtain the correct answers, the study is conducted as an analysis of a systematic literature review. Thus, a search was carried out in the databases, mostly IEEE and IET, and 34 papers were selected as the best corresponding to the HTR theme. It is observed that the preferred form of power distribution in unidirectional hybrid three-phase rectifiers (UHTR) is 55%Po (rectifier 1) and 45%Po (rectifier 2). For the bidirectional hybrid three-phase rectifiers (BHTR), rectifier 1 preferably takes 90% of Po and 10% of Po is processed by rectifier 2. It is also observed that the UHTR that employ the single-ended primary-inductor converter (SEPIC) or VIENNA converter topologies in rectifier 2 can present sinusoidal input currents with low total harmonic distortion (THD) and high Power Factor (PF), even successfully complying with the international standards. The same can be said about the rectifier that employs a pulse-width (PWM) converter of BOOST topology in rectifier 2. In short, the HTR are interesting because they allow using the GRAETZ full bridge topology in rectifier 1, thus taking advantage of its characteristics, being simple, robust, and reliable. At the same time, the advantages of rectifier 2, i.e., high PF and low THD, are well used. In addition, this article also points out the future direction of research that is still unexplored in the literature, thus giving opportunities for future innovation.

Renewable energy sources (RESs) are becoming increasingly important day by day to tranquilize the world’s energy crisis and consume fossil fuels in the lower rung. A microgrid system that assimilates clean and green energy-based sources such as solar, wind, and biogas is acquiring much prominence over the conventional grid-based power systems in this day and age. For the up and running of the inexhaustible energy sources in the AC power network, numerous conversions of the power sources occur. In the process of conversion, some amount of power is lost, which minimizes conversion efficiency. However, with the increasing use of DC loads and Distributed Energy Resources (DERs), DC Microgrid could be more beneficial than the conventional AC power system by avoiding several types of drawbacks. This paper demonstrates an efficient system of digitally controlled boost converter for the parallel operation in DC microgrid. Here, the converter of 2.5kW 400V is designed and implemented to validate its functioning in a Microgrid. The whole system has been simulated in MATLAB with an input voltage range of 220–380 V. It has been found that the designed converter can maintain the desired output voltage in the DC Busbar at and around 400 V. Finally, some simulation results have been presented to analyze the converter’s operational characteristics and effectiveness in the practical domain.

In this paper, we aim to make a detailed study on the evaluation and the characteristics of the non-inverting buck–boost converter. In order to improve the behaviour of the buck-boost converter for the three operating modes, we propose an architecture based on peak current-control. Using a three modes selection circuit and a soft start circuit, this converter is able to expand the power conversion efficiency and reduce inrush current at the feedback loop. The proposed converter is designed to operate with a variable output voltage. In addition, we use LDMOS transistors with low on-resistance, which are adequate for HV applications. The obtained results show that the proposed buck-boost converter perform perfectly compared to others architecture and it is successfully implemented using 0.18 μm CMOS TSMC technology, with an output voltage regulated to 12V and input voltage range of 4-20 V. The power conversion efficiency for the three operating modes buck, boost and buck-boost are 97.6%, 96.3% and 95.5% respectively at load current of 4A.

In this paper, a triangular spread-spectrum mechanism is proposed to suppress the electromagnetic interference (EMI) of a DC-DC buck converter. The proposed triangular spread-spectrum mechanism, which is implemented in the chip, can avoid modifying the printed circuit board of switching regulators. In addition, a lower ripple of output voltage of switching regulators and a better system stability can be realized by the inductive DC resistance (DCR) current sensing circuit. The chip is fabricated by using TSMC 0.18-μm 1P6M CMOS technology. The chip area including PADs is 1.2 × 1.15 mm2. The input voltage range is 2.7~3.3 V and the output voltage is 1.8 V. The maximum load current is 700 mA. The off-chip inductor and capacitor are 3.3 μH and 10 μF, respectively. The experimental results demonstrate that the maximum spur of the proposed DC-DC buck converter with the triangular spread-spectrum mechanism improves to 14dBm. Moreover, the transient recovery time of step-up and step-down loads are both 5 μs. The measured maximum efficiency is 94% when the load current is 200 mA.

Programming Approach

The paper presents a new methodology for optimizing the design of DC-DC converters. The magnitudes that we take into account are efficiency, ripples, bandwidth, and RHP zero placement. We apply a geometric programming approach, because the variables are positives and the constraints can be expressed in a posynomial form. This approach has all the advantages of convex optimization. We apply the proposed methodology to a boost converter. The paper also describes the optimum designs of a buck converter and a synchronous buck converter, and the method can be easily extended to other converters. The last example allows us to compare the efficiency and bandwidth between these optimal-designed topologies.
