Abstract :
Due to the topology particularity of power converter, AGREE reliability allocation method, which is widely used in engineering, is not completely suitable for power converter. Based on the principles of AGREE reliability allocation and allowing for the characteristics of power converter, a modified AGREE reliability allocation method is proposed. In this method, the component complexity is measured by technical maturity, and the component importance is measured by the role of component plays in circuit circulation and the importance of adjacent components, system reliability index can finally be allocated to the components. The method is verified to be effective.
