Abstract

A new CV (Constant-Voltage) CC (Constant-Current) ac power regulator is proposed. Our original Variable Capacitance Device of linear reactance device is utilized in the power stage. This device makes almost no distortion. In this circuit, a sinusoidal output voltage and a high efficiency can be obtained. For the purpose of output voltage/current control and input power-factor correction, two Variable Capacitance Devices were adopted. Two dc-dc converters were used for high-speed driver of these devices. The unity input power factor can be obtained all over the constant-voltage region and the constant-current region. Input current of the proposed power supply becomes almost zero at no load and at short-circuit load.
