With a focus on enhancing efficiency and reliability in electrical systems, Wei has developed innovative solutions that address critical challenges in the industry.
Latest Patents
Wei holds a patent for an AC/DC converter with power factor correction (PFC). This invention features a one-stage power factor correction with output electrical isolation. The patent proposes two types of PFC converters: a multi-stage capacitive-switching network low voltage PFC converter and a two-switch soft switching PFC converter. These designs result in a near unity power factor AC-DC converter with low voltage output. The second converter utilizes a power switch in combination with a grounded auxiliary switch to create a soft-switching converter capable of operating at high switching frequencies. The simplified power stage and control circuit of this converter offer numerous benefits, including improved efficiency of 1 patents, reduced costs, enhanced reliability, and the ability to operate at frequencies in the hundreds of kilo-hertz range with low operating voltages of less than 5 volts. PSPICE simulation and experimental results have demonstrated a measured power factor of 0.99 for the single switch converter.
