Abstract

The current-fed isolated dc/dc converters are suitable solutions for applications requiring low high-frequency current ripple and convenient current control, such as fuel cells and Li-ion batteries. The existing current-fed isolated dc/dc converters are combined with a current-fed bridge-type terminal and a voltage-fed bridge-type terminal, which can only partially obtain the merits of the current-fed terminals. In this article, a dual-current-fed dual-active-bridge dc/dc converter is proposed with the inductor connection on both terminals. Hence, low high-frequency current ripple and convenient current control can be realized on both sides. Besides, it can also realize the voltage spike suppression without snubber circuits and has the inherent soft-switching operation and voltage boost function. Then, the operation principle, design process, and loss analysis of the proposed converter are presented in detail. The experimental results based on a proof-of-concept laboratory prototype are given to verify the steady-state and dynamic performance of the proposed converter.
