Abstract
As a new type of smart material, the Dielectric
Electro Active Polymer (DEAP) is introduced in terms of
configuration, working principle and potential applications. The
design of an autonomous high voltage driving system for DEAP
actuator is investigated. The system configuration and the design
methodology of a high voltage converter are discussed in detail.
Based on the heating valve application, three different high
voltage converter solutions have been proposed. The different
proposals have been compared in terms of energy loss, volume
and cost. Finally, the design selection suggestions are provided to
be a reference for the future designers.
