Abstract

A totem-pole single-phase PFC converter which controls low frequency-side node voltage to which an inductor is not connected into a linear shape within two poles of an AC power supply at a timing where a polarity of an input to the AC power supply is reversed.

Claims (9)

1. A totem-pole single-phase PFC converter, in which, in a totem-pole single-phase PFC converter, low frequency-side node voltage to which an inductor is not connected is configured to be controlled linearly within two poles of an AC power supply at a timing where a polarity of an input to the AC power supply is reversed, wherein an active device is used as a low frequency-side rectifying element to which the inductor is not connected, and the low frequency-side node voltage is configured to be controlled linearly by controlling the active device such that the low frequency-side node voltage and a linear reference signal to be a target be equal to each other.

2. The totem-pole single-phase PFC converter according to claim 1 , wherein an insulated converter is connected to an output stage.

3. The totem-pole single-phase PFC converter according to claim 1 , wherein the low frequency-side node voltage is configured to be controlled linearly by controlling a switching duty of a high frequency switching-side half bridge to which the inductor is connected.

4. The totem-pole single-phase PFC converter according to claim 3 , wherein a switching duty of one switching element of the high frequency switching-side half bridge is configured to be controlled.

5. The totem-pole single-phase PFC converter, in which, in a totem-pole single-phase PFC converter, low frequency-side node voltage to which an inductor is not connected is configured to be controlled linearly within two poles of an AC power supply at a timing where a polarity of an input to the AC power supply is reversed, wherein a linear amplifier configured to charge and discharge a capacitance component of the low frequency-side node is provided, and the low frequency-side node voltage is configured to be controlled linearly by controlling the linear amplifier such that the low frequency-side node voltage and a linear reference signal to be a target be equal to each other.

6. The totem-pole single-phase PFC converter according to claim 5 , wherein an insulated converter is connected to an output stage.

7. The totem-pole single-phase PFC converter according to claim 5 , wherein the low frequency-side node voltage is configured to be controlled linearly by controlling a switching duty of a high frequency switching-side half bridge to which the inductor is connected.

8. The totem-pole single-phase PFC converter according to claim 7 , wherein a switching duty of one switching element of the high frequency switching-side half bridge is configured to be controlled.

9. The totem-pole single-phase PFC converter according to claim 5 , wherein an active device is used as a low frequency-side rectifying element to which the inductor is not connected.
