    摘要: An estimating circuit for application in estimating or deriving the value V.sub.rms.sup.2 or V.sub.peak.sup.2, of a line voltage V.sub.AC provides fast response time and a substantially ripple free value for these signals by the utilization of a controlled harmonic oscillator whose output precisely tracks the input voltage waveform. Two out of phase (by .pi./2) sine wave signals are derived from the input sine wave and these two out of phase signals are squared and summed to derive or estimate the desired square of the sine waveform signal at a fast response time while substantially excluding ripple of the estimated out of phase sine waves. An estimating circuit, described herein, comprises two integrator circuits series connected into a substantially closed loop. The output of the second integrator circuit is fed back to the input of the first integrator circuit. The output of each individual integrator circuit is a voltage sine wave separated in phase from the output of the other integrator by .pi./2 and in synchronism with the input substantially sine wave voltage V.sub.AC. The output of each of the integrator circuits is squared in an associated squaring circuit. Each output of one of the two squaring circuits is summed with the output of the other squaring circuit to produce the desired value of V.sub.peak.sup.2 or V.sub.rms.sup.2.

    摘要: A power factor control system for a rectifier is operative through the generation of estimators of control input parameters (a peak squared input AC voltage E.sub.m.sup.2 and load power) and by the use of these substantially ripple free signals controls a boost, buck, buck-boost, SEPIC or other related type converter at the input to the rectifier. The generation of these parameters allows the derivation of a programmed current i.sub.p used to control the wave form of the actual input current. The control procedure is based on a quarter cycle averaged power basis. The input power is derived from the rms values of the input voltage and current. Given the output power and its deviations in power due to load changes, the programmed current i.sub.p is determined by deriving an input conductance of the rectifier and combining it with the input voltage.

    摘要: A converter for enhancing power factor utilizes a line sense winding magnetically coupled to sense a voltage across a line inductor in the input of a high power factor power converter. This winding in the illustrative embodiment is typically a single turn. This winding provides a measurement of the derivative (with respect to time) of the line current, and a specially designed integrator connected to the winding provides the estimate of the line current. An integrator is operative to accurately estimate the current by using known properties of this current to prevent mismeasurement due to reconstructing the "constant of integration" and any small biases in the integrator which normally cause errors.

    摘要: A split boost converter is disclosed herein, suitable for both single phase and three phase AC input applications. It provides two equal but unparallelable output voltages stored on two separate independent output capacitors. The implementation supports two modes of operation in which two power switches are operated simultaneously or alternately. Each mode maintains the advantage of a reduced boost inductor size. In the first mode the charging of the capacitors in parallel circuits and their discharge in a series connection substantially reduces ripple current in the inductor permitting the user of a smaller inductor. In the second mode the capacitors are charged and discharged in differing time intervals achieving a similar result. The circuit is operable with input voltages which must exceed the voltages of its two output capacitors.

    摘要: A dc-dc converter system comprises a quasi-regulated bus converter and plural regulation stages that regulate the output of the bus converter. The bus converter has at least one controlled rectifier with a parallel uncontrolled rectifier. A control circuit controls the controlled rectifier to cause a normally non-regulated mode of operation through a portion of an operating range of source voltage and a regulated output during another portion. The bus converter may be an isolation stage having primary and secondary transformer winding circuits. For the non-regulated output, each primary winding has a voltage waveform with a fixed duty cycle. The fixed duty cycle causes substantially uninterrupted flow of power during non-regulated operation. Inductors at the bus converter input and in a filter at the output of the bus converter may saturate during non-regulated operation.
