| Abstract |
The purpose of such an application is to boost energy stored in batteries or ultracapacitors at variable low voltages to feed a common DC bus at about 42V for automotive embedded applications. The range of power for these applications will be up to some kW (nominal power at 4 kW). In this direct proposed conversion topology, transistors MOSFET operate under soft switching conditions that is to say that this converter will present very low losses. Another advantage will be presented with the HF link intermediate bus, which permits the adaptation of voltage levels thanks to new planar technology for transformers. Test bench has been developed to valid this structure, different tests are presented but are limited by output current (20A). |
