Abstract

This paper presents a new single-stage highfrequency isolated ac-dc converter that uses a simple control circuit. It is well suitable for wide input variation power sources. The circuit configuration combines a diode rectifier, boost converter and half-bridge dc-dc resonant converter. A high power factor is achieved by discontinuous current mode (DCM) operation of the front-end integrated power factor correction circuit. The output voltage is regulated by fixedfrequency, secondary-side phase-shift active rectifier. Softswitching operation is achieved for all the switches. This converter operates in three modes, which is classified according to conduction of different switches and diodes. The intervals of operation and steady-state analysis are presented in detail. Design example of a 100 W proposed converter is given together with its simulation and experiment results for wide variation in input voltage.
