High-speed voltage level-up shifter with wide range conversion for system-on-chip applications

Abstract The purpose of this investigation is to demonstrate a level shifter circuit that enhances voltage switching capacity while simultaneously reducing latency by employing a cascaded current mirror, input, and output inverters. We improved our design using multi-threshold Complementary metal oxide semiconductor (MTCMOS) technology by adding stackable transistors, super-cutoff mechanisms, and cascaded techniques. The level shifting between voltage ranges of 0.3 V and 2.0 V is accomplished by the proposed level shifter. Our design has been fine-tuned to meet the needs of system-on-chip applications by meticulously optimizing performance characteristics like energy usage, latency, and space utilization. The proposed level shifter has an area of 6.936 µm2 and a power consumption of 17 nW, with a delay of 90.64 ps. The proposed work has been done on the Cadence Virtuoso Tool using 45 nm technology. Our suggested level shifter is more effective than earlier methods in terms of latency and conversion range. In addition to delivering considerable reductions in space and power consumption, the suggested design promises a 50-fold increase in operating speed.

Improve power quality and stability of grid - Connected PV system by using series filter

As the world increasingly focuses on renewable energy sources, grid-connected PV systems will continue to play a critical role in meeting our energy needs. This integration has brought many benefits, but has also created various problems related to power quality and stability at the connection points. Various techniques are used to improve the power quality, such as passive filters, tuned passive harmonic filters, and active filters. This paper presents the use of a series active filter on the DC side of grid-connected PV systems to improve their power quality, stability, and dynamic performance. The proposed filter consists of an inductor, two capacitors, and four transistor-diode pairs, the operation of which is controlled by a sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) scheme. The MATLAB/Simulink is used to build and validate a comprehensive mathematical model of the studied system. The transfer function of the system is identified and its transient response is studied under various test input signals. A Bode plot is also generated to assess the impact of the integration of this component on the stability of the system. The results showed that incorporating the filter resulted in a significant reduction in the total harmonic distortion factor (Thd%) for both the voltage and current waves at the inverter output. Moreover, it improved the transient response characteristics of the system by significantly reducing the maximum overshoot value of the system response with respect to the test input signals. The results indicate that the stability of the system is improved after the filter addition, as evidenced by the increased gain margin and phase margin in the system Bode plot.

Comparison between Cascaded H-Bridge and Neutral Point Clamped Topologies in Medium-Voltage Systems

Medium voltage motor drives (MVD) come in various topologies that allow designers to choose the best option for their application based on technical and economic considerations. The Neutral Point Clamped (NPC) and Cascade H-Bridge (CHB) are the most particular topologies that have come to the fore. CHB and NPC MVD's primary operating principles, switching stress, topological complexity, and harmonic distortion of the inverter output will be presented in this article, along with a brief review of suitable modules. Even though the number of parts in a cascaded inverter is lower than that of a neutral point-clamped inverter, it has been demonstrated that the stress on the switches in both types of inverters is the same and that the resulting output waveforms are nearly identical in terms of harmonic distortion. The neutral point clamped topology requires less secondary winding from the transformer, fewer voltage-balancing capacitors, the same quantity of switches, and extra clamping diodes. Benefits of NPC include high-power-density inverters, enhanced output quality, reduced number of components, reduced heat losses, increased efficiency, elimination of commonmode voltages and currents thanks to an isolation transformer, and a remote transformer that allows for a more adaptable footprint. Additionally, the NPC drive rectifier system (Transformer and diode H-bridges) has the advantage of more simplicity, ease of assembly, fewer connections, fewer space requirements, and an expensive isolation transformer. The MATLAB simulation for both topologies was carried out, with 3 phase motor 3.8kV, 150 KW motor parameters.

A Power Boosting Method for Wireless Power Transfer Systems Based on a Multilevel Inverter and Dual-Resonant Network

With the deepening of research on wireless power transfer (WPT) technology, there is an urgent need to improve the output power of WPT systems. Therefore, this paper proposes a power boosting method based on a multilevel inverter and dual-resonant network. The system adopts a five-level inverter whose output voltage contains rich fundamental and harmonic components. The transmitting side adopts a dual-resonant compensation network, and, through its parameter configuration, the system can be in a resonant state at both the fundamental and third harmonic frequencies. The receiving side adopts two receiving channels which can simultaneously receive power at both frequencies, thus boosting the output power. Firstly, the overall structure and operating principle of the system are introduced. Then, the relationship between the system output power and efficiency with the inverter modulation parameters is obtained and the strategy for selecting the optimal operating points of the inverter is designed by comprehensively considering the THD of the inverter output voltage and the efficiency of the system. Furthermore, the proposed system is simulated in a Matlab/Simulink platform. Finally, an experimental setup is created to verify the proposed method. The results show that, compared with the single-channel WPT system, the proposed method can enhance the output power from 160 W to 310 W with a boosting coefficient of nearly double and with the highest efficiency exceeding 92%.

A Decoupled Modulation Strategy for Constant Voltage/Current Wireless Charging System Under High Coils Misalignment

ABSTRACTOutput fluctuation and lower transmission efficiency under load and mutual inductance variation are hot concerned in the wireless charging system for power batteries. In this paper, a decoupled tracking strategy is proposed to realize constant voltage (CV) or current (CC) output and high transmission efficiency. The circuit model of series–series compensation network is built, and corresponding transmission characteristics can be derived. First, the load and mutual inductance value can be estimated by measuring the primary electrical information, including the inverter output voltage, current, and the phase error between them. Then load‐independent voltage or current output characteristics under coils misalignment can be maintained by tracking the optimal switching frequency of inverter part. In addition, the value of output voltage or current can be adjusted flexibly for different operation occasions by the employment of pulse‐width modulation. As a result, the load‐independent output characteristics realization and output adjustment can be decoupled. Based on only the primary measuring information, the CV/CC output can be maintained via the proposed hybrid control strategy when the coils misalignment and load variation happen, increasing the robustness of whole wireless power transfer (WPT) system. Furthermore, the soft switching of all power switches in the inverter part can be realized to reduce the switching loss. Compared with previous research, the proposed wireless charging system has a higher power density and a simplified control strategy. Finally, an experimental platform with 60‐V charging voltage and 3.6‐A charging current is built to verify the feasibility of the proposed sys‐tem and control method.

Comparison of space vector and switching frequency optimal pulse width modulation for diode free F‐type multi level inverter

AbstractThis study presents a comprehensive examination of space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) and switching frequency optimal PWM (SFOPWM) for an F‐type multilevel inverter (FTMLI). SVPWM offers a simple, digital implementation for three‐phase, three‐level inverter structures, and carrier‐based SFOPWM allows for maximum use of switching frequency with a simple construction. This approach reveals the underlying relationship between the above two PWM techniques with various amplitude and frequency modulation indices to ensure the performance of FTMLI. A suitable comparative study was carried out to verify the PWM techniques based on the inverter output voltage, total harmonic distortion, switching stress, and filter size. The analytical conclusions are supported by the simulation results and their experimental validation.

Thermal and hydraulic performance of 3D printed jet impingement configuration for SiC power modules in aerospace propulsion inverters

Efficiently controlling the temperature of power electronic inverters is crucial for aerospace applications with high power density. Effective thermal management strategies could enhance the power output of power inverters to their maximum rated capacity. Jet impingement is a promising technology with outstanding heat transfer characteristics, making it a sophisticated aid for cooling innovation in power inverters. A numerical comparative study was conducted between jet impingement and traditional pin finned heat sink. In our case study, the pin fin could not effectively regulate the junction temperature to a level below 150 °C. By using a 3D printed jet impingement housing composed of polymer, the weight of the power module thermal management system could be decreased by 71 % compared to a metallic pin finned heat sink. Moreover, this approach aids in lowering the junction temperature to 129 °C, under the same boundary conditions. Additionally, a numerical study was conducted on power modules with thermal imbalance used in aerospace inverters. The study proposed various configurations of jet impingement to reduce temperature differences between power module switches, as well as minimize the pressure drop across the jet impingement housing. The primary objective is to minimize the temperature disparity between the unbalanced switches in order to improve the overall reliability and lifespan of the power module, while decreasing the pressure drop. Among all the options, the optimum design achieves a minimal temperature difference of 24 °C between the power module switches, while the pressure drop reaches 12 kPa.

Real-Time Power Regulation of Flexible User-Side Resources in Distribution Networks via Dual Ascent Method

Flexible user-side resources are of great potential in providing power regulation so as to effectively address the challenges of reverse power flow and overvoltage issues in distribution networks characterized by high photovoltaic (PV) penetration. However, existing distributed algorithms typically implement control signals after the convergence of the algorithms, making it difficult to track frequent and rapid fluctuations in PV power outputs in real time. Given this background, an online-distributed control algorithm for the real-time power regulation of flexible user-side resources is proposed in this paper. The objective of the established control model is to minimize network losses by dynamically adjusting active power outputs of flexible user-side resources and reactive power outputs of PV inverters while respecting branch power flow and voltage magnitude constraints. Furthermore, by deconstructing the centralized problem into a primal–dual one, a distributed control strategy based on the dual ascent method is implemented. With the proposed method, agents can achieve global optimality by exchanging limited information with their neighbors. The simulation results verify the good balance between economic efficiency and voltage control performance of the proposed method.

Solar PV system with maximum power tracking

The paper investigates the state-of-the-art architecture of photovoltaic systems (PVS) by evaluating the performance of the developed maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm of fuzzy particle swarm optimization (FPSO) for temperate continental latitudes. The material of the paper gives an evaluation of traditional MPPT algorithms in relation to the state-of-the-art FPSO algorithm. The study summarizes the problems of On-Grid PV systems and analyzes methods of solving them by combining them with hydrogen technologies. The paper summaries the experience of observations of climatic factors and solar resources on the example of the Russian Federation. Thus, in 2023, the average winter temperature exceeded the norm by 4.7 °C, and the average summer temperature exceeded the norm by 4.9 °C compared to 2022. The paper analyses the level of insolation, which increased by 0.03 kWh/m2 by regions of Russia for the period 2022–2023. The experimental part of the work was carried out at the solar power plant (SPP) «Kalmykskaya» with coordinates 53.422832 north latitude and 55.266895 east longitude. The watt-volt field characteristic of photovoltaic modules (PVM) connected to the inverter was obtained experimentally. When compared, the correlation coefficient between the experimental power (P) and voltage (U) of the panels was found to be higher than that of the ideal panels, 0.933 versus 0.914. The correlation coefficient between the ideal P(U) function and the experimental one is (−0.475). The data for calculating the coefficient of performance (COP) of the implemented MPPT algorithm was also obtained experimentally, which was about 98.7%. The reliability of the data used in the calculations was confirmed by two independent means of measurement, the difference of the obtained results was less than 1%. In the last part of the experiment of this study, the dependence of insolation in a given geographical point on the generated PV field power was evaluated. The correlation coefficient was 0.47, while the inverter output voltage was maintained in the nominal range of (600 ± 20%)V. Thus, the authors of the study experimentally proved the efficiency of using MPPT on FPSO in temperate continental climate with duration of sunshine T = 1850 h per year. The effectiveness of the FPSO algorithm under the conditions of inverter distance from the common point of the DC switching cabinet (DСCC) has been confirmed. The effectiveness of the MPPT algorithm based on FPSO under conditions of partial shading, increased cloud cover and increased air temperature is concluded. Using the description of the current architecture of On-Grid SPP, the authors draw attention to the impossibility of operation of such systems without the presence of voltage in the reference network. In addition, the impossibility of the system operation at the value of PVM power over 1500 kW and at the voltage of panels less than 900 V is noted. To modernize the existing PVS architecture, for the first time, the use of a DCCC and an inverter with implemented MPPT on the FPSO in combination with a hydrogen (H2) production unit and nickel-hydrogen (Ni–H2) batteries is proposed. The researchers propose that when the PVM field voltage is below 900 V and when the PVM field power exceeds 1500 kW, energy can be diverted to H2 generation or to charge Ni–H2 batteries via a DCCC controller. Such an architecture will improve the continuity and efficiency of the PVS, reduce the carbon footprint, and allow the PVS to be used as an industrial uninterruptible power supply (UPS). The authors see the lack of standardization of implemented projects based on the ESG principle as the main problem of alternative energy development.

Control of Grid-Tied Inverter During Unbalanced Transient Fault

With increasing use of renewable and clean form of energy, PV systems have become popular due to its versatility and easy implementation. The overall performance of grid-connected PV systems is directly influenced by the performance of grid-tied inverter. Hence, control of grid-tied PV inverter has become a temptation. This project explores the development of grid-connected PV system and optimization of control strategies for grid-tied inverter to ensure its seamless operation and grid stability during transient faults. The transient faults occurring at the inverter side disrupts the normal operation of inverter and even lead to shut down of inverter during faults.Therefore, a control strategy is suggested and developed to control the overvoltage of DC-link capacitor and deliberately functioning and output of grid-tied inverter is improved. This is simply possible by introducing ELC so that the inverter needs not be shut down.

Investigating the principle and application of high-frequency and high-voltage pulse AC equipment for oil–water separation of heavy crude oil

To address the challenges of oil–water separation encountered during the processing of heavy crude oil, this study meticulously examines the kinetics of demulsification under an electric field. Consequently, a cutting-edge high-frequency/high-voltage AC pulsed power supply has been innovatively developed. This device boasts a flexible voltage-adjustment mechanism, strategically enhancing the inverter output voltage incrementally throughout the pulse’s duration. This method effectively reduces the negative impact of current surges on the operational stability of crude oil desalination plants, especially during the commutation periods of the switching devices. Furthermore, it resolves the issue of premature power supply shutdowns to the desalination plant, caused by peak currents misinterpreted as critical short-circuit currents leading to pole plate breakdowns. An industrial application study conducted at Shandong Chambroad Petrochemicals Co., Ltd. Under identical operational conditions, the power supply designed in this research outperforms traditional electrical desalting transformers in several key aspects. These include a notably enhanced oil–water separation capability and significantly more stable performance. Remarkably, the desalting efficiency shows substantial improvement even at increased feed rates, under constant other conditions. The experimental findings indicate that the average rates of desalination and dehydration achieved by this power supply exceed 90%. Moreover, even when the feed rate is augmented by approximately 75% under constant operating conditions, the desalination efficiency remains 78.49% higher than that achieved by standard industrial frequency electric desalination transformers. Additionally, the desalting outcomes are predominantly unaffected by fluctuations in the initial salt content of the feedstock, demonstrating the robustness of the developed solution.

A Power Circulating Suppression Method for Parallel Transient Inverters with Instantaneous Phase Angle Compensation

A unidirectional link is typically incorporated into the DC input side of an inverter to ensure the reliability and stability of the microgrid power supply. Due to impedance and control variations among inverters, circulating currents may rapidly arise during the operation of parallel transient inverters. Nonetheless, the unidirectional power circulating in a DC unidirectional link results in energy accumulation on the DC side, causing DC bus voltage pumping and affecting MGs’ operation safety and stability. This paper proposes a non-communication-based circulation suppression strategy to suppress power circulation in parallel transients based on the local information of inverters. First, a parallel transient is modeled, and the power circulation phenomenon and its influencing factors are analyzed. Then, the instantaneous power and absorbed active energy are calculated to adjust the phase of the inverter output voltage and suppress power circulation. Moreover, the output frequency is adjusted to balance the DC-side voltage of each inverter. Then, the stability of the parallel system after adding the circulation suppression control strategy is verified using the Lyapunov function method. Finally, simulation and experimental results verify the effectiveness of the proposed power circulation suppression strategy.

The proposed approach allows to synthesize an automatic control system that significantly improves the quality of the voltage inverter output parameters.

A Virtual Synchronous Generator-Based Control Strategy and Pre-Synchronization Method for a Four-Leg Inverter under Unbalanced Loads

Virtual synchronous generator (VSG) control has positive effects on the stability of microgrids. In practical power systems, both single-phase loads and three-phase unbalanced loads are present. The four-leg inverter is an alternative solution for the power supply of unbalanced loads and grid connections. The traditional VSG control strategy still faces challenges when using a four-leg inverter to provide a symmetrical voltage and stable frequency in the load power supply and pre-synchronization. This paper proposes a VSG-based control strategy along with a pre-synchronization method for four-leg inverters. An improved VSG control strategy is put forward for four-leg inverters. The improved virtual impedance control and power calculation methods are integrated into the control loop to suppress the voltage asymmetry and frequency ripples. Building on the improved VSG control strategy, a pre-synchronization control approach is proposed to minimize the amplitude and phase angle discrepancies between the inverter output voltage and the power grid voltage. In addition, an optimized design method for control parameters is presented to improve VSG dynamic performance. A hardware prototype of the four-leg inverter is built; the results show that the voltage unbalance ratio can be reduced by 89%, and the response time can be shortened by 50%.

When compared to existing strategies, the proposed technique displays lower THD and high efficiency.

An Improved SPWM Strategy for Effectively Reducing Total Harmonic Distortion

In the inverter circuit, the speed at which the MOSFET is impacted by the presence of a parasitic inductor within the printed circuit board (PCB) leads to a delay in the switching process. Furthermore, the parasitic inductor within the circuit can easily form an LC oscillation with the parasitic capacitor of the MOSFET. These two issues result in an inconsistency between the actual output of the MOSFET and the driving signal waveform, leading to distortion in the sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) waveform and an increase in total harmonic distortion (THD). It is a common practice to mitigate gate oscillation by introducing a resistor at the gate of the MOSFET. However, elevating the resistance leads to deceleration in the charging process of the MOSFET’s parasitic capacitor, consequently causing an increase in the switching delay, and thereby increasing THD. Therefore, an effective strategy to reduce THD is proposed in this paper, while augmenting the gate resistance, computing the MOSFET switching delay, and applying corrective compensation. In this way, the inherent issues of the switch are addressed, resulting in inverter output waveforms that closely resemble sine waves and reduced THD. Through a combination of simulation and empirical experimentation, the efficacy of the proposed approach in significantly reducing THD in the inverter’s output waveform has been empirically substantiated.

ЦИФРОВА СИСТЕМА КЕРУВАННЯ РЕЗОНАНСНОГО ІНВЕРТОРА НАПРУГИ З САМОЗБУДЖЕННЯМ

Phase-locked loop systems (PLL) are widely used in control circuits of transistor resonant voltage inverters of induction heating installations. One of disadvantages of PLL systems is low speed, which is caused by the presence of a low-pass filter. This disadvantage is absent in self-oscillating systems, when the switching moment of the transistors is determined on each of half periods. At the same time, an asymmetry of half periods is possible, which is a significant disadvantage if there is a transformer at the output of the inverter. A self-oscillating digital control system for a resonant voltage inverter and equal half periods durations of the inverter output voltage has been developed. It can work with different methods of regulating the output current and allows to provide switching modes of transistors with minimal power losses. References 7, figures 5.

Stabilized voltage source inverter for sensitive loads in nuclear installations

The present paper proposes a novel design of a stabilized single-phase voltage-source inverter with pure sinusoidal output voltage for photovoltaic systems employed for feeding sensitive loads in nuclear installations. Such types of loads require a voltage source with quite stabilized magnitude and frequency and pure sinusoidal shape that is free from higher-order harmonics. The inverter is based on an H-bridge four insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) with gate drivers and optocoupler isolators. A control system based on a fast DSP unit and a microcontroller is designed for cancelation of the higher-order harmonics to produce a pure sinusoidal output with almost zero total harmonic distortion (THD). The sinusoidal purity, frequency and magnitude stabilization are achieved through pulse width modulation (PWM) controlled by a fast-response feedback system that measures the time wave form of the output voltage applied to the load and then calculates the THD, frequency and amplitude. The sinusoidal shaping is performed with aid of a sinusoidal shaping filter (SSF) to fasten the operation of higher-order harmonic cancellation. The frequency measurement is achieved through a frequency counter whereas the amplitude measurement is carried out through a differential amplifier that amplifies the difference between the output voltage of the inverter (while being applied to the load) and reference voltage that determines the desired amplitude. A prototype of the entire system of the proposed voltage-source inverter is fabricated for experimental evaluation of its performance. It is shown through simulation and experimental work that the proposed control system of the inverter output voltage is able to stabilize both the amplitude and frequency of the voltage applied to the load irrespective of the load impedance. Also, it is shown that the THD of the output voltage is -57dB\\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \\usepackage{amsmath} \\usepackage{wasysym} \\usepackage{amsfonts} \\usepackage{amssymb} \\usepackage{amsbsy} \\usepackage{mathrsfs} \\usepackage{upgreek} \\setlength{\\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \\begin{document}$$-57 \ ext{ dB}$$\\end{document} (0.00025%\\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \\usepackage{amsmath} \\usepackage{wasysym} \\usepackage{amsfonts} \\usepackage{amssymb} \\usepackage{amsbsy} \\usepackage{mathrsfs} \\usepackage{upgreek} \\setlength{\\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \\begin{document}$$0.00025 \\%$$\\end{document}), which is almost zero.

LMI-Based MPC Design Applied to the Single-Phase PWM Inverter with LC Filter under Uncertain Parameters.

This work proposes a design methodology for predictive control applied to the single-phase PWM inverter with an LC filter. In the design, we considered that the PWM inverter has parametric uncertainties in the filter inductance and output load resistance. The control system purpose is to track a sinusoidal signal at the inverter output. The designed control system with an embedded integrator uses the principle of receding horizon control, which underpinned predictive control. The methodology was described by linear matrix inequalities, which can be solved efficiently using convex programming techniques, and the optimal solution is obtained. MATLAB-Simulink and real-time FPGA-in-the-loop simulations illustrate the viability of the proposed control system. The LMI-based MPC reveals an effective performance for tracking of a sinusoidal reference signal and disturbance rejection of input voltage and load perturbations for the inverter subject to uncertainties.
