  • Leah was not satisfied with the teachings of Mason et al. and advanced the art by providing a more continuous flow of power which did not require this extended ON state. According to Leah, it is possible to sense not only the polarity of the input voltage to an AC Buck Converter but also the polarity of current flowing to the load driven by said AC Buck converter. Based on this information, Leah taught us that the switching of the main switch and the switching of the commutation switch did not need to occur in a bidirectional manner.
  • Leah taught us that, again based on the polarity of the input voltage and the polarity of the current flowing to the load, either the main switch or the commutation switch could be enabled in one direction and then enabled in both directions so as to ensure fully commutative pulse width modulation control.
  • switch sequencing occurred by first changing the state one switch in a pair of switches (for example the commutation switches) followed by a change of the state of a both switches in a second pair of switches (for example the main switch) then followed by a change of the state of the remaining switch in the first pair of switches. This resulted in two distinct intervals of time between switch state transitions.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil pour assurer une circulation de courant continue dans une bobine d'induction de sortie par détermination en premier lieu du niveau de courant circulant dans une bobine d'induction de sortie et par détermination ensuite du fait que le niveau de courant est à l'intérieur d'une fenêtre de faible courant par rapport à une ligne zéro. La ligne zéro représente la polarité de la circulation de courant dans la bobine d'induction de sortie. Dans le cas où la circulation de courant dans la bobine d'induction est à l'intérieur de la fenêtre de faible courant, alors un cycle abaisseur de tension est prolongé jusqu'à ce que le niveau de courant circulant dans la bobine d'induction ne se trouve plus à l'intérieur de la fenêtre de faible courant.
