Power switches and electrolytic capacitors are the most vulnerable components in the power electronic converters. Any failure in these components may result in severe damages, if no remedial action is employed. Prior to any remedy, the first step is fault diagnosis. In this paper, a new type of Rogowski coil sensor is proposed. The sensor captures the inductor current derivative, which contains suitable signatures for switch fault diagnosis and capacitor lifetime monitoring in nonisolated single-switch dc-dc converters. Using the captured signal, detection of switch open-circuit and short-circuit faults is realized by a simple logic circuit. Furthermore, a new capacitor lifetime monitoring technique is proposed, which employs this signal for calculating equivalent series resistance of the capacitor. The proposed sensor has some remarkable advantages. Due to its nonmagnetic core, the problem related to nonlinear response of magnetic cores at high frequencies will not be encountered. Furthermore, the proposed cost-efficient approach can be easily implemented even for already fabricated converters. The performance of the proposed sensor is evaluated using some finite-element simulations and experiments for a buck converter. The results confirm the capabilities of the sensor for switch fault diagnosis and capacitor lifetime monitoring in nonisolated single-switch dc-dc converters.
