| Sumario: | This paper proposes an AC/DC single-stage structure by integrating a boost topology and an active clamp flyback (ACF) circuit with power-factor-correction (PFC) function. The PFC function can be achieved by controlling a boost PFC topology operated in the discontinuous conduction mode. With the coordination of active clamping components, a resonant technique is obtained and zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) can be achieved. The proposed converter is combined with the advantages of: (1) compared with two-stage circuit, a single stage circuit decreases the component of the main circuit and reduces the complexity of the control circuit; (2) a boost topology with PFC function operated in discontinuous conduction mode can be accomplished without adding any current detecting technique or detecting input signal; (3) by using the inductor from the PFC stage, ZVS function can be achieved without any additional inductor; (4) the increment of switching frequency facilitates the optimization of power density; (5) the conducting loss at the secondary side can be reduced by adding the synchronous rectification; (6) in this proposed scheme, the dual transformers with series-parallel connection are utilized, the current at the secondary side can be shared for lowering the conduction loss of the synchronous transistors. Finally, a prototype converter with AC 110 V input and DC 19 V/6.32 A (120 W) output under 300 kHz switching frequency is implemented. The efficiency of the proposed converter reaches 88.20% and 0.984 power factor in full load condition. |
