A novel, high-efficiency inverter using MOSFETs for all active switches is presented photovoltaic, non-isolated, AC module applications. The proposed H6-type configuration features high efficiency over a wide load range, low ground leakage current, no need split capacitors, and output AC-current distortion. detailed power stage operating principles, PWM scheme, novel bootstrap supply the are described. Experimental results of 300 W hardware prototype show that not only MOSFET body diode...
Existing photovoltaic (PV) panels have widely varying input voltages based on the panel configuration and size. In this paper, a novel topology with single active switch - combining boost, flyback, charge-pump circuits is proposed in order to achieve wide range, high voltage gain, efficiency, low cost simultaneously. It meets input-voltage power-level needs of majority modern PV while still being suitable for connection highvoltage dc bus. The circuit has been designed, simulated,...
This digest presents an integrated active EMI filter (AEF) solution that mitigates conducted common-mode (CM) emissions and improves power density in kilowatt-scale off-line supplies. The proposed AEF comprises circuit (IC) senses high-frequency CM noise from the lines using a set of Y -rated capacitors, while rejecting line-frequency differential-mode components. IC processes sensed injects cancelling current back into through another Y-rated capacitor, hence presenting very low impedance...
