The main characterization results of the super-gain BJT are reminded to identify the key parameters that are essential to build the TBBS. A complete characterization database in static mode of this new AC switch is discussed. In particular, its forward and reverse-biased features have been measured to see the evolution of the DC current gain as a function of the current density. The TBBS makes sense when using the super-gain BJT （bipolar junction transistor） in reverse mode. It means that the reverse DC current gain has to be sufficient （at least higher than l compared with the conventional BJT one）. This new AC switch is bidirectional in current and voltage, totally controllable （turn-on and turn-off） and the most attractive solution in terms of on-state power losses. Further, its manufacturing process is as easier as existing device such as triac.展开更多

Both PWM and square-wave modes of operation have been considered. The frequency relation and phase unbalance problem due to discrete time integral half-cycle switching has been discussed in the beginning. Then, generalized Fourier series have been derived for output voltage, output current and supply current in two modes.The analytical results help to understand tbe converter characteristics, design optimally a convertermachine system of arbitrary capacity considering the various trade-off parameters.展开更多
