Abstract: An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) and methods of operation are provided. The UPS includes a transformer configured to receive power from a utility. The transformer includes a primary winding, a secondary winding, and a tertiary winding. The UPS also includes a rectifier coupled to the secondary winding and an inverter coupled to an output of the rectifier, wherein a connection between the rectifier and the inverter defines a DC link. The inverter is configured to output a first regulated voltage configured to be provided to a load. The UPS further includes a voltage-boost converter coupled to the tertiary winding and is configured to output a second regulated voltage to be combined with the first regulated voltage.

Abstract: A system including a converter is disclosed. The converter includes a first switch having one or more first controllable switches coupled in parallel across at least one diode. A first controlling unit is operatively coupled to the converter. The first controlling unit is configured to determine a temperature of the one or more first controllable switches. The first controlling unit is further configured to compare the determined temperature of the one or more first controllable switches with a transition temperature at which a first power loss of the one or more first controllable switches is equal to a second power loss of the at least one diode and control a switching state of the one or more first controllable switches based on the comparison of the determined temperature with the transition temperature.
