    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To comprise both AC and DC voltages and to achieve the bi- directional four-quadrant power flow by operating a bi-directional switch during one portion of the switching cycle of an AC voltage, which is connected between the input and output of a four-quadrant inverter, thereby changing the voltage of an output waveform. SOLUTION: A main bi-directional switch Sa with first and second uni-directional switches Sw1 and Sw2 are connected between the input and output of a four-quadrant inverter 150. Also, a controller 160 that is connected to an auxiliary bi-directional switch Sb and the main bi-directional switch Sa with third and fourth uni-directional switches Sw3 and Sw4 of the four-quadrant inverter 150 operates Sa and Sb so that the input and output of the four- quadrant inverter 150 can be connected during the main period or the auxiliary period of the switching cycle of the AC voltage. therefore, by adjusting the continuity period of the main and auxiliary bi-directional switches Sa and Sb, the AC output voltage of the AC output waveform can be changed.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus and a method for reducing the distortion of an input current near the zero crossing point of an input signal. SOLUTION: The power factor correcting electric converter comprises an input tracing circuit 150 connected to a power source, a rectifier 12 connected to the power source, and a filtering circuit 2 connected to the rectifier. In this case, an input detector 26 is connected to the circuit 150, and its output circuit is connected to the circuit 22. A feedback circuit 52 is connected to an input detecting node 32 and an output detecting node 50 to receive an input designation signal and an output designation signal and to generate a gating signal. The output circuit responds to the gating signal to control to switch the connection to a load. The input detector or the feedback circuit may be constituted to delay to differentiate the phases of the input designation signal and the input signal.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce costs and simplify structure by providing an insulation transformer with primary coil winding that is connected to a primary side power switch, a secondary side power switch that is connected to the secondary coil winding of the insulation transformer, and a capacitor that is connected to the secondary side power switch. SOLUTION: A secondary side power switch Sw can be operated so that it conducts electricity during the conduction period of a primary side power switch to allow current to flow from an insulation transformer T1 to output. The current is partially accumulated in a power supply 200 during the non- conduction period of the secondary side power switch Sw. Therefore, the power supply 200 further includes a capacitor (circulation capacitor Cf) that is connected to the secondary side power switch Sw for circulating one portion of current during the non-conduction period of the secondary side power switch Sw in the direction of the output. The costs of the capacitor are low and the use of a bi-directional active switch prevents the structure from becoming complex as a passive device.
