    摘要: An active damping circuit for an electromagnetic interference (EMI) filter for power factor correction (PFC) circuit is provided which simulates a line damping impedance which actively varies according to sensed line current. The active damping circuit comprises an nth-order, Cauer-Chebyshev, low-pass filter having input series damping impedance (Z.sub.d) simulated with a power operational amplifier and high-frequency isolation transformer. The simulated damping impedance offers greatly reduced size and power dissipation as compared to prior art passive schemes which typically require large impedance components for damping. A passive damping circuit is also shown which involves providing an alternate inductive current path in parallel with a damping resistor whereby lower frequency currents are diverted through the alternate current path and higher frequency currents continue to flow through the damping resistor. In this manner, the damping action of the damping resistor is attenuated for lower frequencies but remains unaffected for higher frequencies.

    摘要: An X-ray tube assembly includes a hermetically-sealed annular frame, spaced apart cathode and anode rings and an electron excitation device. The frame surrounds an exterior central passage for receiving a patient therethrough and has an interior chamber with a vacuum and an X-ray transparent window ring surrounding the central passage. The cathode and anode rings are stationarily mounted to the frame and disposed within the interior chamber. The cathode ring has circumferentially arranged side-by-side filaments each separately excitable by the electron excitation device to cause flow of electrons in an e-beam to a target portion of the anode ring such that an X-ray beam is produced that exits the interior chamber passing through the transparent window ring and that can be moved around the patient disposed within the central passage.

    摘要: A novel switching rectifier circuit that combines the conventional three-phase, 6-stepped PWM rectifier/inverter circuit with a simple, low-power switch commutation circuit to provide zero-voltage turn-on for the switches, and soft turn-off for the diodes. The main features of the new circuit include elimination of switching losses on the power switches and reverse recovery problems on the diodes, elimination of the need for any snubbers in the three-phase bridge, possibility of use of slower diodes in the power bridge, constant frequency operation, and no increase in component current and voltage stresses over the conventional PWM rectifier.

    摘要: An optimal phase-shifted control for a series resonant converter involves instantaneous monitoring of state variables (resonant capacitor voltage resonant inductor current and output voltage) and implementation of a control law for providing a quasi-squarewave-with-maximum-coasting (QSWMC) mode of operation. The control law uses the instantaneous resonant inductor current, the instantaneous resonant capacitor voltage and the output voltage to determine the optimal time to perform switching events in order to operate on a desired control trajectory. The QSWMC converter operates at a minimized frequency in a super-resonant mode with zero-voltage switching, minimized electrical stresses, and reduced electromagnetic interference due to nearly sinusoidal resonant tank currents.
