Active smoothing control DC power supply

When a DC power supply is connected to a single-phase power supply or a single-phase load via a DC-AC converter, extremely large power pulsations occur. Therefore, electrolytic capacitors, which can provide large capacitance, are widely used in smoothing circuits in DC power supplies. However, they have major issues with their vulnerability to temperature rise and short lifespan. [Solution] A smoothing capacitor circuit using a film capacitor with few lifespan issues is configured in parallel with the DC power supply circuit via a step-up or step-down DC / DC converter, and significant charge / discharge control of the capacitor is performed using switching control to suppress DC voltage pulsation, thereby realizing a capacitor with an equivalently large capacity and achieving the elimination of electrolytic capacitors.
