Abstract

As the demand for high power densities of power converters is ever increasing, physical distances between power stages and control circuits are falling. Therefore today's control circuits have to cope with higher levels of electromagnetic noise. Among many other benefits, like enhanced flexibility and ability to communicate, digital control can drastically improve the EMI robustness. Implementation details of a digital control scheme for a 1.2kW Zero-Voltage-Switched Fullbridge Converter (ZVS FBC) will be presented. Experimental results will be assessed and compared to results achieved with a standard analogue control circuit. It will be shown that at least for highpower converters digital control is a viable solution.
