High-efficiency high-voltage difference ratio bi-directional converter

The aim of this invention focuses on the development of a high-efficiency bidirectional converter for power sources with great voltage diversity. In traditional bidirectional converters, the circuit topology with transformer form is the common usual. Moreover, the soft-switching techniques including zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) or zero-current-switching (ZCS) are usually used for alleviating the corresponding switching losses. However, there are four and upward power semiconductor switches in these circuit schemes. By this way, it will result in the increase of production cost, and the degeneration of conversion efficiency. The coupled-inductor bidirectional scheme in the proposed converter only adopts three power semiconductor switches to accomplish the objective of bidirectional current control. Under the situation of non-isolation circuit topology, it still possesses the protection of electric safety for operators. Due to the characteristics of high step-up and step-down ratio, the battery module with low voltage could be injected into a high-voltage dc bus for the later utilization, e.g., high-voltage load, front-end of inverter. Since the techniques of voltage clamping, synchronous rectification and soft switching are manipulated in this circuit topology, and the corresponding device specifications are adequately performed, it can achieve the goal of high-efficiency bidirectional power conversion for power sources with great voltage diversity.

Junction termination structure of transverse high-pressure power semiconductor device

The invention relates to a junction termination structure of a transverse high-pressure power semiconductor device, belonging to the technical field of semiconductor power devices. An N-type drift region at a curvature termination of the transverse high-pressure power semiconductor device is shortened in length to ensure that the N-type drift region is spaced with a P-well region by a certain displace, wherein the spaced part is replaced by a P-type substrate, which is equivalent that additional electric charges of the P-type substrate are introduced so that the peak value of an electric field at a pn junction formed the original P-well region and the N-type drift region is reduced, meanwhile, a new peak value of the electric field is introduced at a pn junction formed by the P-type substrate and the N-type drift region, the radius of curvature of the curvature terminal is increased, the excessive concentration of a power line is avoided, and the puncture voltage of the device is increased, wherein the surface of the N-type drift region also can be combined with a surface RESURF structure or an ultra-junction structure. The junction termination structure has the advantages of being capable of decreasing the width of the curvature terminal of the device, saving the layout area of the device and being compatible with a CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-semiconductor Transistor) process, and can be used for manufacturing the transverse high-pressure power device with the advantages of excellent performance, high voltage, high speed and low conduction loss.

The invention discloses a power factor correction control circuit for reducing EMI (electro magnetic interference), which comprises an inductive current threshold value, wherein when an inductive current is less than the inductive current threshold value, a peak value of the inductive current is controlled to be changed along with an input voltage; and when the inductive current reaches the inductive current threshold value, the inductive current is limited to be the inductive current threshold value. In such a way, the maximum peak of the inductive current is reduced, so that an inductive ripple current is reduced; the power factor is ensured, and the EMI of the circuit is reduced simultaneously, so that circuit filtering can be carried out simply and easily; and the power factor correction control circuit is extremely suitable for occasions with middle or low power. In addition, the peak current stress of the circuit is low, so that a switch tube and other components have small loss, and the utilization ratio of a power supply is further improved.
