Abstract :
A novel circuit parameter design concept called "Power Loss Design Platform" has been proposed to realize high output power density (OPD) converters. The platform concept enables the exact power loss design, taking the effect of correlations among converter parameters into consideration under real circuit condition. An experimental apparatus has been fabricated based on the platform concept. Details of the power loss design methods for semiconductor power devices and passive filters are presented. The validity of proposed methods is confirmed in the chopper circuit and the inverter circuit. The platform concept for the circuit parameter design enables the optimal circuit parameter extraction under real circuit conditions.
