Abstract

This paper presents a 120V/230Vac to 5-to-12Vdc offline power converter consisting of a capacitor-drop AC-DC rectifier and a full-duty-cycle input-series dual-branch DC-DC converter for IoT devices. The proposed converter operates at full-duty-cycle with VCR of D/2 and reduces both the CREC volume and the voltage stress on components, while achieving high efficiency across a broad input and output voltage range. 87.2% peak efficiency, 2.15W output power, and 1088mW/cm3 power density are achieved.
