Abstract

This paper presents a wide input voltage vehicle DC/DC converter based on an LLC resonant converter for a 48 V light hybrid power system. According to the design requirements of on-board DC/DC converters and an analysis of their system characteristics, a full-bridge LLC resonant converter is employed with a zero-voltage activation of the switching transistors through resonant elements. In terms of the control strategy, the unsatisfactory high-frequency regulation gain of an LLC resonant converter is analyzed under the frequency modulation (FM) control strategy. In addition, to accommodate wide input voltage operating conditions, a composite control strategy is proposed by combining the advantages of the frequency modulation control strategy and phase shift control strategy, analyzing their control principles, and discussing the selection of the control mode switching point. By modeling LLC resonant converters with simulation software, the obtained results verify the effectiveness of the composite control strategy for LLC resonant converters. An experimental platform based on the TMS320F28335 controller, which can achieve stable operation with an input voltage in the range of 300 V–600 V and an output voltage of 48 V, is then built. The experimental results verify the feasibility of the design.
