97.4%-Efficient All-GaN Dual-Active-Bridge Converter with High Step-up High-Frequency Matrix Transformer

Elison de Nazareth Matioli, Armin Jafari, Palliyage Srilak Nirmana Perera

In this work, we demonstrate a state-of-the-art high step-up/down dual-active-bridge (DAB) converter designed with GaN transistors, to achieve a high efficiency and large power-density. A quasi-planar matrix transformer with high step-up/down ratio is demo ...

Robust and Cost Effective Synchronization Scheme for a Multicell Grid Emulator

Drazen Dujic, Min Luo, Nicolai Hildebrandt

Steadily increasing requirements for grid connected converters, their growing unit power and output voltage call for flexible high-power medium-voltage grid emulators. Four-quadrant cascaded H-bridge topology features high output voltage resolution and hig ...

Piezoelectric energy harvesters (PEHs) convert mechanical energy from vibrations into electrical energy. They have become popular in energy-autonomous IoT systems. However, the total energy extracted by a PEH is highly sensitive to matching between the PEH ...

IEEE2019

Piezoelectric energy harvesters (PEHs) are widely deployed in many self-sustaining systems, and proper rectifier circuits can significantly improve the energy conversion efficiency and, thus, increase the harvested energy. Various active rectifiers have be ...

Multi-level high-voltage power supply for dea application

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Morgan Almanza, Lucas Pniak, Lucas Depreux

In order to reap the benefits of Dielectric Elastomer Actuator (DEA) high energy density, the electronics powering the actuator should be as small as possible. Knowing that only a small fraction of the energy delivered to DEAs is effectively converted into ...

Enhanced DAB for Efficiency Preservation using Adjustable-Tap High-Frequency Transformer

Elison de Nazareth Matioli, Armin Jafari, Furkan Karakaya

Efficient DC-DC power-conversion with wide-span voltage-regulation is crucial to a sustainable and robust power electronics system. Dual-active-bridge (DAB) offers straight-forward regulation and its transformer enables voltage step-up/down required for ma ...

Supply Grid Synchronization and Operation of a Filterless Cascaded H-Bridge based Grid Emulator

Drazen Dujic, Nicolai Hildebrandt

Steadily increasing requirements for grid connected converters, their growing unit power and output voltage call for flexible high-power medium-voltage grid emulators. Four-quadrant Cascaded H-Bridge (CHB) topology features high output voltage resolution a ...
