Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of converter technology, and in particular to a low-ripple output AC-AC converter. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, with the increasing demands for power quality in modern power systems, dynamic power quality issues such as voltage sags, swells, and fluctuations are becoming increasingly prominent, posing a serious threat to the stable operation of sensitive loads. Taking dynamic voltage restorers, precision AC voltage regulation systems, and variable frequency drives as examples, their core components all require AC-AC converters capable of directly converting AC power. Compared to the traditional two-stage AC-DC-AC conversion scheme, direct AC-AC converters, by eliminating the intermediate DC energy storage stage, offer significant advantages such as high efficiency, compact size, controllable cost, and long system life. In particular, symmetrical bipolar AC-AC converters capable of providing both in-phase and out-of-phase outputs demonstrate irreplaceable value in the aforementioned application scenarios due to their flexible output voltage polarity control capabilities.

[0003] To achieve symmetrical buck-boost functionality, traditional single-phase matrix converters require eight fully controlled switches, resulting in inherent drawbacks such as high system cost, complex control, and significant losses. To reduce the number of switches, simplified topologies with four or five switches have been developed. However, these topologies, while minimizing the number of switches, make significant compromises in performance. The core issue is that the filter inductor in the circuit operates independently, and its limited filtering capability leads to large output voltage ripple. Excessive output voltage ripple can cause electromagnetic interference, increase the stress on the output filter capacitor, and severely restrict the increase in system switching frequency. At high frequencies, excessive ripple current leads to a sharp increase in core losses, forcing designers to use larger inductors, thus limiting the improvement of converter power density. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a low-ripple output AC-AC converter to fundamentally suppress output voltage ripple without increasing the inductance value or other filtering components, while ensuring the basic buck-boost performance of the converter, so as to achieve higher power density and better power quality.

During the dead time, the current is freewheeled through the body diode of the controlled switch, while avoiding high voltage spikes and bridge arm shoot-through.

During the dead time, the inductor freewheels through the body diode of the controlled switch, thus avoiding high voltage spikes and bridge arm shoot-through.

[0031] Based on the above topology design, this embodiment was simulated on a simulation platform. In non-inverting voltage boost / buck mode: when the effective value of the input voltage is 70V and the duty cycle is 0.6, the converter is in boost mode.

When the effective value of the input voltage is 70V and the duty cycle is 0.4, the voltage gain can be obtained from equation (2). G =0.67, the converter is in buck mode. Measured output voltage V The experimental waveform of 0 is as follows Figure 7 As shown in (b), the output voltage remains stable and has low ripple output in non-inverting operating mode.

[0033] In existing technologies, the newly published four-switch topology reduces the number of switches, making the topology more streamlined, but the output voltage has a larger ripple. In non-inverting voltage boost / buck mode: when the input voltage RMS is 70V and the duty cycle is 0.6, the converter is in boost mode. The measured input voltage at this time...

G=0.67, the converter is in buck mode. Measured output voltage V The experimental waveform of 0 is as follows Figure 8 As shown in (b) in the figure, it can be seen that the output voltage ripple is always large in the non-inverting operating mode.

[0034] In reverse voltage boost mode: when the effective input voltage is 70V and the duty cycle is 0.6, the converter is in boost mode. The input voltage measured at this time... V in and output voltage V The experimental waveform of 0 is as follows Figure 9 As shown in (a), the output voltage and input voltage have opposite polarities, resulting in higher harmonics in the output voltage. When the effective value of the input voltage is 70V and the duty cycle is 0.4, the voltage gain can be obtained from equation (2). G =0.67, the converter is in buck mode. Measured output voltage V The experimental waveform of 0 is as follows Figure 9 As shown in (b) in the figure, it can be seen that the output voltage harmonics are always high in the non-inverting operating mode.

[0035] The comparison results with the four-switch topology show that the proposed topology in this embodiment has a smooth and stable output voltage waveform with significantly reduced ripple voltage. This waveform verifies the effective suppression of output ripple by the equivalent inductance of the circuit, indicating that this embodiment achieves high-quality power output and significantly reduces output voltage ripple without increasing the inductance value or other filtering components.

[0036] Therefore, the present invention adopts the above-mentioned low-ripple output AC-AC converter, which solves the problem that existing AC-AC converters can effectively suppress output voltage ripple through topology reconstruction without increasing the inductance value or adding output filter components, thereby saving production costs and improving the quality of power output.

[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and not to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can still be made to the technical solutions of the present invention, and these modifications or equivalent substitutions cannot cause the modified technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
