Abstract

A three-phase-isolated current-fed dc–dc converter with LCC-T resonant tank to achieve an efficient and compact design is proposed. Traditional dc–dc converters require an external parallel inductor to increase the transformer magnetizing current to realize soft switching under light-load conditions. The proposed LCC-T configuration eliminates this requirement and realizes light-load soft switching with reduced circulating current. In addition, the proposed topology maintains zero-voltage switching (ZVS) turn-ON of primary switches, ZVS turn-ON and zero-voltage-zero-current switching turn-OFF of secondary diodes for all load conditions. Steady-state operation, analysis, and design of the proposed converter are reported. Experimental results of 1-kW hardware prototype to verify the claims of the proposed analysis and design are presented.
