This paper evaluates several DC-DC power converter topologies suitable for arc welding focusing on MMA type (Manual Metal Arc). The aim is to outline the main characteristics of this process that directly affect the electronic design of the DC-DC converter and to set criteria to select the most adequate. They will be compared taking into account volume, weight, cost and functionality. As a result, it will be selected those that fit better for the application. To conclude, some experimental results on a full-bridge converter confirm the study and the selection procedure followed. ©2007 IEEE.
