Non-electrolytic capacitors are therefore used in applications where long-life is important. In this paper we present a driving stage for LEDs without any capacitive elements. The basic topology is a Buck converter with one coil, one active, and one passive switch. Instead of the output capacitor, series connections of one or more LEDs and an active switch are connected. An additional diode is connected between the output and the input to achieve a current path, when all LED- paths are off. A nonlinear hysteresis controller is used to achieve a robust control. A system with three switchable LED-strings is analyzed. Design hints are given and the function is proved with the help of LTSpice simulations. The system can be used for lighting purposes with the possibility to change the chrominance. The potentiality to transmit data is also treated.}, subject = {DC-to-DC converter}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{HimmelstossHofschweigerVotzi, author = {Himmelstoss, Felix and Hofschweiger, Andreas and Votzi, Helmut}, title = {Quadratic Combined Forward-Flyback Converter}, series = {Power Conversion and Intelligent Motion Conference (PCIM) 2023, May 9-11, 2023 Nurenberg, Germany}, booktitle = {Power Conversion and Intelligent Motion Conference (PCIM) 2023, May 9-11, 2023 Nurenberg, Germany}, doi = {10.30420/566091315}, pages = {1446 -- 1453}, subject = {DC/DC converter}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{HimmelstossErtlVotzi, author = {Himmelstoss, Felix and Ertl, Benjamin and Votzi, Helmut}, title = {A new limited duty cycle step-up converter}, series = {International European Conference on Interdisciplinary Scientific Research, July 13-15, 2023, Rome, Italy}, booktitle = {International European Conference on Interdisciplinary Scientific Research, July 13-15, 2023, Rome, Italy}, pages = {811 -- 833}, subject = {DC/DC converter}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{Himmelstoss, author = {Himmelstoss, Felix}, title = {Modified Boost Converter with additional Boehringer network}, series = {10th International Zeugma Conference on Scientific Research, June 25-26, 2023, Gaziantep, Turkey, pp. 404-411}, booktitle = {10th International Zeugma Conference on Scientific Research, June 25-26, 2023, Gaziantep, Turkey, pp. 404-411}, pages = {404 -- 411}, subject = {DC/DC converter}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{Himmelstoss, author = {Himmelstoss, Felix}, title = {High Step-Up Converter with Continuous Input and Output Current}, series = {5th International Ankara Multidisciplinary Studies Congress, Ankara, Turkey, Jan. 27-29, 2023}, booktitle = {5th International Ankara Multidisciplinary Studies Congress, Ankara, Turkey, Jan. 27-29, 2023}, pages = {978 -- 989}, subject = {power converter}, language = {en} }
