Abstract
- This paper describes active shunt LC decoupling circuit with ceramic capacitors, allowing volume reduction and lifetime improvement of the high-voltage dc filters. Active filtering is based on the energy exchange between high-voltage coupling and low-voltage auxiliary capacitors. The coupling capacitor enables use of the low-voltage switched-mode power stage and low-voltage auxiliary decoupling capacitor. Advantageously, this allows to reduce power dissipation, switching frequency ripple current, and to reduce volume of the circuit. Additionally, power efficiency and capacitor lifetime are improved by using recent high-voltage coupling multilayer ceramic capacitors, reaching very low ESR. This paper provides description of the active decoupling capacitor, and shows an example of the feedback control. Obtained performances are demonstrated on the prototype of 1300-μF/450-V capacitor, allowing to reduce volume by three, when compared to ordinary 450-V electrolytic capacitor. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
