| Abstract |
In this paper a novel inrush current limiting technique for low voltage dc/dc converters is presented and analyzed. The proposed circuit overcomes the drawbacks of the already existing techniques, where power semiconductor devices are used in series with the common ground wire. The proposed circuit utilizes N Power MOSFET at the positive line (uninterrupted ground) and the magnitude of the inrush current is precisely controlled. On the other hand, the need of crow bar circuit for input isolation is eliminated. The experimental results were in close agreement with the theoretical and simulated ones. |
