    摘要: Apparatus and techniques for adaptively adjusting an input current limit for a boost converter supplying power to a load, such as an amplifier. An example circuit for supplying power generally includes a boost converter having an output coupled to a load, and logic configured to adaptively adjust an input current limit for the boost converter based on an estimated output power for the boost converter and to apply the input current limit to the boost converter. One example method for supplying power generally includes converting an input voltage to an output voltage with a boost converter, to power a load for the boost converter, adaptively adjusting an input current limit for the boost converter based on an estimated output power for the boost converter, and applying the input current limit to the boost converter during the converting.

    摘要: In an uninterruptible power supply apparatus, AC current, which includes a feedback component having a value corresponding to deviation between terminal-to-terminal voltage of a capacitor and reference voltage, and a feed forward component obtained by multiplying load current by a gain, is passed into a converter such that the terminal-to-terminal voltage of the capacitor becomes the reference voltage. The gain is set to a first gain in an iverter power feed mode and a bypass power feed mode, and the gain is set to a second gain smaller than the first gain in a switching period of switching between the inverter power feed mode and the bypass power feed mode, to prevent the terminal-to-terminal voltage of the capacitor from exceeding an upper limit voltage in a lap power feed mode.

    摘要: A power converter apparatus employs an energy recovery auxiliary circuit to suppress overvoltage oscillations and achieve high efficiency in a resonant LLC power converter system having high power density. The power converter apparatus includes an inverter configured to receive a DC input power and produce an AC voltage, a resonant tank including a resonant inductor and a resonant capacitor coupled between the AC voltage and a primary winding of a transformer, a rectifier configured to produce a DC output power coupled to a secondary winding of the transformer. The power converter suppresses overvoltage oscillations on rectifier switches by employing an energy recovery auxiliary circuit to transfer, during a transition period, current from the secondary side to a clamping capacitor conductively coupled to the primary side of the converter. The energy is then recovered during a subsequent power transfer cycle, thereby improving overall efficiency of the power converter.
