POWER CONVERTERS MAHSHID AMIRABADI ASSISTANT PROFESSOR DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRICAL & COMPUTER ENGINEERING POWER ELECTRONICS, RENEWABLE ENERGY SYSTEMS, ELECTRIC AND HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLES, AC DRIVES UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS AT CHICAGO

POWER CONVERTERS  Power converters control and process the flow of electrical energy.  These circuits are integral part of many systems including, but not limited to, renewable energy systems and electric and hybrid electric vehicles.  Power Electronics is an Enabling Technology.

CHALLENGES Power converters used in Photovoltaic power generation systems are responsible for more than 50% of the failures! Power converters used in a PV system need to be replaced every 5-10 years. Therefore, the actual cost of a PV system should include the periodic inverter replacements. Weight and Volume Reliability Cost

SOLUTION: AC-LINK UNIVERSAL POWER CONVERTERS  The AC-link universal power converters are a new class of power converters with numerous advantages:  Much more compact (at least 15 times smaller) due to high frequency of operation  More reliable due to modification of the topology and eliminating the vulnerable components  Less expensive Conventional Topology (A) First generation of AC-Link Universal Power Converter (B) Power30 kW weight1204 lb80 lb Power density0.024 kW/lb0.375 kW/lb Efficiency95%97% Courtesy of Ideal Power Converters Inc. A B

AC-LINK UNIVERSAL POWER CONVERTERS  We have pending patents on configurations with superior performance over the first generation. They require fewer semiconductor devices; while offering the same advantages:  Dramatically improving the reliability (reducing the failure rates)  Further reducing the size/weight  Reducing the cost First generation of AC-Link Universal Power Converters Conventional Power Converter

WIDE-BANDGAP SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE BASED RAPID AND INTELLIGENT PROTECTION SUDIP K. MAZUMDER PROFESSOR DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRICAL & COMPUTER ENGINEERING DIRECTOR, LABORATORY FOR ENERGY AND SWITCHING-ELECTRONICS SYSTEMS UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS AT CHICAGO

WHY WIDE-BANDGAP TECHNOLOGY (E.G., SIC/GAN)?  Higher breakdown voltage capability  Reduced on-state drop  Reduced leakage current  Typically higher thermal conductivity  Higher current density  Reduced switching loss and low device capacitance (i.e., faster switching)  Reduced die size

MECHANISMS OF DEVICE ACTUATION Electrical Triggering  E.g., 3-terminal MOSFET, IGBT devices  In some cases standard gate drivers can be used  Low- and high-side gate drivers needed Optical Triggering  Triggering technology that Prof. Mazumder at UIC is currently pursuing  Direct optical excitation can provide very rapid actuation response (faster than electrical triggering) with high di/dt and dv/dt  Optical triggering eliminates the need complex high-side gate drivers leading to simple gate driving mechanism  Higher reliability due to complete electrical isolation between power and control stages  Work undergoing that can control the switching dynamics of the device when it is turning on or turning off

IMPLICATIONS FOR PROTECTION  Wide-bandgap technology can enable realization of robust protection devices that can yield both rapid actuation and steady- state endurance  Fast and discrete switching implies intelligent rapid control sequencing of single as well as array of protection devices (e.g., for distributed systems)  Optical technology provides enhanced reliability at high di/dt and dv/dt, yields high reliability to back propagation, simple scalability of protection devices to significantly higher voltage and current levels via series and parallel connections without complex gate drivers
