摘要
Differential power processing (DPP) isolated-port architecture with submodule integrated converters (subMICs) enables improved energy capture in photovoltaic (PV) power systems. This paper describes a control scheme for flyback subMICs operating in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). The duty-cycle is driven in proportion to a voltage error, with no further processing, thus eliminating the need to measure or to control the current explicitly. The approach is well suited for very simple, analog PWM controller implementation, but the resulting control loops become nonlinear. The system stability is demonstrated using the Lyapunov stability theorem. Experimentally measured module-level efficiency is greater than 95% for a 72-cell PV module having 3 substrings with solar irradiation of 80%, 60% and 40%, respectively.
