| Abstract |
In this paper, we propose a power supply for piezoelectric actuators that can generate arbitrary waveforms at frequencies ranging from low to medium frequency. The actuators are used in a forging process and require high voltage. The converter is based on an original combination of a boost DC-DC converter and a rectifier circuit, thus reducing the number of components needed. Moreover, no transformer is required. Experimental results on a single and three phase version are presented and validate the proposed converter. |
