Optimized Bidirectional PFC Rectifiers & Inverters - Si vs. SiC vs. GaN in 2L and 3L Topologies -
Open accessAbstract
In industrial drive systems, PFC converters are widely used. For PFC converters, a lot of different configurations and topologies exist and it is difficult to choose one. Therefore, in this paper, a comprehensive survey of possible configurations are optimized and compared against each other. The analysis shows the important aspects of the converter design and how the used semiconductor technology (Si, SiC and GaN) affects the total converter volume. A sensitivity analysis of certain power semiconductor parameters is performed to highlight the benefit of possible future developments of components and materials. In addition, the differences between the rectifier stage, where an EMI filter stage is necessary and the inverter stage, where the harmonic motor losses are influenced by the modulation scheme, are presented.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
