Review of Bidirectional DC-DC Converters

Abstract

There is a growing importance in bidirectional dc-dc converters for interface battery with energy source. This paper provides a comprehensive review of non-isolated bidirectional dc-dc converter topologies. The classification and explanation of each type of converter is based on the features and applications. This review paper is intended as a convenient reference to future bidirectional dc-dc converter users. The most promising converters in terms of their simplicity, flexibility, and high efficiency are singled out.
