    Abstract: A conversion apparatus with a three-level switching circuit includes a DC conversion module, a three-level circuit, and a control unit. The three-level circuit includes a bridge arm assembly and a capacitor assembly. The capacitor assembly includes a first capacitor and a second capacitor connected to the first capacitor in series. The DC conversion module has a positive output end and a negative output end, and the positive output end and the negative output end are coupled to the bridge arm assembly. The control unit controls the switching of a second switch unit and a third switch unit to make the three-level circuit operate in a first state where the positive output end and the negative output end are connected to the first capacitor, and operate in a second state where the positive output end and the negative output end are connected to the second capacitor.

    Abstract: A power bypass apparatus with a current-sharing function includes at least two bypass switch assemblies and a control unit. Each bypass switch assembly includes a controllable switch, a cooling unit, and a temperature detection unit. Each the temperature detection unit, correspondingly disposed to a heat-dissipating unit, detects a temperature value of the controllable switch to produce a temperature detection signal. The control unit receives the temperature detection signals and outputs at least two switch control signals to control at least one of the controllable switches or outputs at least two cooling unit control signals to control at least one of the cooling units, thus making currents flowing through the controllable switches identical. Accordingly, it is to increase overall efficiency of a power system and implement current-sharing function of the power system providing high power.

    Abstract: An electronic device with heat sink is provided. The heat sink includes a base and fins. One side of the base has a first placement plane and a second placement plane. The electronic device includes a circuit board, a power module and transistors. The power module includes a power body and soldering legs, and the power body is attached to the first placement plane. The transistor has a transistor body and pins, and the transistor body is attached to the second placement plane. The circuit board is disposed at one side of the base formed with the first placement plane, and soldering legs of the power module and pins of the transistor are inserted on the circuit board. Thereby the heat sinks and the space which the circuit board occupied will be reduced for increasing the power density of the heat sink.

    Abstract: A power converter and a power conversion method are provided and capable of bus capacitor voltage balance based on inherent inductor components of the power converter. Compared with the conventional approach that adds a balance circuit, the power converter and the power conversion method can reduce a size of overall circuit and improve a power density. In addition, two relays of the power converter are configured to switch switching states such that two inductors store or release energy, thereby transmitting electrical energy between two bus capacitors and two load capacitors. The power converter and the power conversion method are able to realize energy balance and hybrid power supply and satisfy various load requirements.
