A Single-Stage Constant Power Capacitor Charging Architecture for Flicker Mitigation for High-Power Pulsed Loads
—Capacitor chargers for pulsed power loads are typically realized as two-stage systems consisting of a front-end rectifier and a dclink filter followed by a dc/dc converter. Whereas such systems generally operate in constant current charging mode, it has recently been demonstrated that constant power charging may be achieved and can effectively eliminate line-side flicker. In this article, these i
