Zero-Voltage-Switching Single-Phase Full-Bridge Inverter With Active Power Decoupling

Zero-Voltage-Switching Single-Phase Full-Bridge Inverter With Active Power Decoupling Single-phase zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) inverter with wide bandgap devices has higher efficiency and power density. However, the dc-side capacitor of the inverter will suffer double line frequency ripple and reduces the lifetime of the dc bus capacitor. Active power decoupling (APD) is an effective method to replace the […]

An Isolated Bidirectional Microinverter Based on Voltage-in-Phase PWM-Controlled Resonant Converter A single-stage single-phase isolated bidirectional microinverter based on a voltage-in-phase pulsewidth modulation (VIP-PWM)-controlled resonant converter is proposed in this article. With the VIP-PWM control, the voltage conversion ratio of the resonant converter can be regulated from zero to infinity, theoretically, which means the VIP-PWM is […]
