Switch-Linear-Hybrid Power Converter and Its Application Prospect in Industry

A new power conversion mode is structured by hybridizing switch power conversion mode with linear amplification mode, so as to acquire their synthetic optimal performances. The theoretical analyses and experimental results are presented in this paper. They are proved that the new converters can match multi-kinds of loads (including nonlinear loads) with strong robustness, good waveforms and high efficiency. Its appliance prospect can be expected, particularly for the conditions where serious static and dynamic performances are required.
