Abstract
A reduced sensor based bridgeless boost (BLB) power factor correction (PFC) converter fed full-bridge inductor–inductor capacitor (FBLLC) converter for electric vehicle (EV) charging, is presented in this article. This converter is a twin stage converter, where the first stage is a PFC-BLB converter operating in continuous conduction mode of its boost inductors, and the second stage is an FBLLC converter, which converts the output voltage of the PFC-BLB converter to an isolated low voltage for constant current/constant voltage (CC/CV) charging of an EV battery. The BLB converter is switched at fixed frequency using pulsewidth modulated control, whereas FBLLC converter employs a pulse frequency modulation control to enable CC/CV charging of EV battery. An experimental prototype of EV charger is developed and the digital control of PFC-BLB and FBLLC converter, is implemented using a 32 bit <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"><tex-math notation="LaTeX">$TMS320F28035$</tex-math></inline-formula> digital signal processor to charge an EV battery with a maximum power of <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"><tex-math notation="LaTeX">$2.7\text{ kW}$</tex-math></inline-formula> and a current of <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"><tex-math notation="LaTeX">$50\text{ A}$</tex-math></inline-formula> .
