A boosting AC-to-DC converter may include a main rectifier, a first and second auxiliary rectifiers, and an autotransformer. The autotransformer may include a plurality of winding assemblies each having a primary terminal connected to an AC power source, a main secondary terminal connected to the main rectifier, a first auxiliary secondary terminal connected to the first auxiliary rectifier, and a second auxiliary secondary terminal connected to the second auxiliary rectifier. Impedance between the primary terminal of each of the winding assemblies and the main rectifier is less than impedance between the primary terminal of each of the winding assemblies and either the first auxiliary rectifier or the second auxiliary rectifier. Impedance between the primary terminal of each of the first winding assemblies and the first auxiliary rectifier is different from impedance between the primary terminal of each of the winding assemblies and the second auxiliary rectifier.

摘要:
A rectifier circuit powers three power conversion modules using a three phase AC input without a neutral connection. First, second and third bridge rectifiers are connected to first, second and third phases of the three phase AC input and produce first, second and third rectified waveforms, respectively. A connection between the first, second, and third bridge rectifiers forms a virtual neutral. Capacitors are connected across the bridge rectifies to filter the rectified waveforms and to create a DC rail voltage. The DC rail voltages feed power conversion modules. Two of the three power conversion modules remain powered at a decreased voltage level when the remaining power conversion module fails. Inductors are connected between the bridge rectifiers and the capacitors to further smooth the DC rail voltages and increase the power factor. Alternately, inductors are connected between the phases of the three phase AC input and the bridge rectifiers.

A power regulator (30) is provided which employs a resonant circuit (32) and permits regulation between a certain maximum value and zero. A series resonant circuit is adjusted to regulate power by adjusting the correspondence between the resonance frequency and the frequency of the voltage source (31) such as an AC source delivering a sine wave or a square wave. Further, the output voltage is regulated to be lower than the AC source (31) when output current is zero. A capacitance (C2) is connected in parallel with the output of the power regulator (30) to form a second resonant circuit with the inductance (L1) of the series resonant circuit (32). A method of power regulation is also contemplated.

摘要:
The invention relates to an AC/DC converter circuit (100) and a method for converting N≧2 AC supply voltages (U1, U2, U3) into DC voltage. This is achieved by feeding the AC supply voltages to first terminals (a1, a2, a3) of full bridge converters (11, 12, 13), wherein the second terminals (b1, b2, b3) of these rectifiers are coupled to each other. The outputs (d11, d1′, d2, d2′, d3, d3′) of the rectifiers are fed to the DC terminals of intermediate converters (21, 22, 23). The AC terminals (e1, e1′, e2, e2′, e3, e3′) of the intermediate converters are connected to the primary sides of transformers (31, 32, 33), wherein the secondary sides of these transformers are provided to further rectifiers (41, 42, 43). The circuit design allows using MosFETs of limited voltage capability for processing 380 V three-phase AC current, thus achieving a high efficiency.
