Abstract
Description
Technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to active filter technology, in particular to a single-phase active power filter using an analog cascade controller. Background technique
[0002] Today, the use of electrical energy has expanded from simple linear loads to electronic power equipment with non-linear, impact and imbalance characteristics, such as solid-state motor drives, personal computers, and energy-saving ballasts Device. In these devices with distorted input current characteristics, rectifiers are often used. In addition, typical switching power supplies use diode rectifiers for AC-DC conversion. These diodes take short pulse input current from the power supply system, rather than smooth sine wave input current. Then, in order to deliver the same amount of power with short pulses, the current peak value will be very high. This puts pressure on wiring, circuit breakers and even power distribution devices provided by utility companies. At the same time, becau...
