- Abstract
- A hybrid dc–dc converter suitable for the on-board charger applications consisted of a Soft Switching Full Bridge (SSFB) converter and a Half Bridge (HB) LLC resonant converter is proposed. The proposed topology employs an additional switch and a diode at the secondary of the SSFB converter to eliminate the circulating current and to achieve the full soft switching of the primary switches. The output voltage is regulated by adjusting the duty of the secondary side switch. The validity and feasibility of the proposed converter are verified by the experiments with a 10-kW prototype converter. The maximum of 96.8% efficiency is achieved at 5 kW output power. © 2019 by the authors.
