Abstract
A single-stage power-factor-corrected pulsewidth modulation power
converter with extended load power range is presented. The topology is
based on a zero-voltage zero-current-switched full-bridge (ZVZCS-FB)
inverter. Steady-state analysis of the topology shows that by operating
the LC load filter in discontinuous mode, the DC-link voltage remains
bounded and independent of the load level. Therefore, the load power
range can be further expanded, including the no-load operating
condition. The analysis also shows that the extension of the load power
range is achieved without any penalty in: (1) the input power factor
(due to the input current waveshaping feature); (2) the power converter
efficiency (due to ZVZCS and the single-stage features); and (3) the
load voltage quality (due to the high bandwidth of the phase control
loop). Simulated and experimental results are included to show the
feasibility of the proposed scheme
