In renewable energy generation, battery charging systems may experience a wide range of input voltage fluctuations, and some power devices require a wide input voltage range. Therefore, instead of using a traditional buck-boost converter, this paper proposes a single-stage AC-DC converter with power factor generation (PFC) and hybrids SEPIC and Cuk converter cells to achieve bridgeless operation, which exhibits wide output voltage characteristics and low output voltage ripple (OVR). The proposed converter can effectively regulate the output voltage, meanwhile maintain a high power factor (PF), ensuring a stable output. The presented converter can be easily controlled in discontinuous conduction mode operation using a simple voltage control. Then, operating modes and output voltage peak-to-peak ripple characteristics of a specific circuit are presented.

摘要

In renewable energy generation, battery charging systems may experience a wide range of input voltage fluctuations, and some power devices require a wide input voltage range. Therefore, instead of using a traditional buck-boost converter, this paper proposes a single-stage AC-DC converter with power factor generation (PFC) and hybrids SEPIC and Cuk converter cells to achieve bridgeless operation, which exhibits wide output voltage characteristics and low output voltage ripple (OVR). The proposed converter can effectively regulate the output voltage, meanwhile maintain a high power factor (PF), ensuring a stable output. The presented converter can be easily controlled in discontinuous conduction mode operation using a simple voltage control. Then, operating modes and output voltage peak-to-peak ripple characteristics of a specific circuit are presented. Finally, simulations are conducted to validate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed circuit.
