Abstract
This paper presents a dual-mode control scheme for a boost rectifier at both extreme loads. The transition-mode (TM) technique is adopted to reduce the switching loss at light loads. On the other hand, the fixed-off-time (FOT) control with continuous conduction mode (CCM) operation decreases the conduction losses at heavy loads. The principles and design procedures of the proposed dual-mode controller are discussed and analyzed. Finally, a 300-W dual-mode boost rectifier with an output voltage of 380 V is implemented with satisfactory experimental results.
