A constant-frequency step-up LLC resonant converter module that employs a new phase-shifted semiactive voltage multiplier technique is proposed in this article for a medium-voltage dc distribution grid. In the proposed converter, a wide voltage gain for different loading conditions can be realized by adaptively controlling the phase shift of the auxiliary switch in a voltage quadrupler-based semiactive voltage multiplier. Zero-voltage switching turn-on is always achieved for all the primary side switches with a constant-frequency operation. In the proposed semiactive voltage multiplier, zero-current switching (ZCS) turn-on is achieved for the auxiliary switch with ZCS operations provided for all the output diodes over a wide range of voltage gain and loading conditions. The operating principles of the proposed circuit are discussed in this article. Simulation results on a 120-kW, 10-kV output and experimental results on a modular laboratory-scale silicon carbide (SiC)-based 5-kW (per-module), 240–440-V/5-kV prototype are provided to demonstrate the performance of the proposed converter.
