The existenc e of discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) operation state requires the bias of in du ctor current for DBI implemented with linear controllers like ramp comparison SP WM (RCSPWM) controllers. A novel operation scheme for DBI and a hysteresis curre nt controlled dual buck half bridge inverter (HCDBI) are proposed. The bias curr ent required by RCSPWM DBI is eliminated and conduction losses are dramatically reduced. HCDBI has greatly improved the modulation performance in DCM region for the benefit of its excellent command tracking capability. The operational schem e and control strategy are presented. Power losses of the conventional half brid ge inverter (CHBI) and HCDBI are compared with mathematical computation, and exp erimental verification is also executed. Both calculational and experimental res ults verify that HCDBI has a superior switching performance over CHBI. Its exce llent high frequency operational capacity provides another access to realize high fre quency operation of inverters.展开更多

A trade-off between noise and power was realized through the optimization of the improved current source. The VCO can be tuned from 2.83 to 3.25GHz with a 13.8% tuning range. The measured phase noise at 1MHz offset is -111dBc/Hz at a frequency of 3.22GHz while the core circuit draws less than 2mA from a 1.8V supply voltage. These results make the circuit suitable for a 5GHz wireless local area network （WLAN） receiver and 3.4 to 3.6GHz world interoperability for microwave access （WiMAX） application.展开更多
