Analysis of Phase-Shifted Full-Bridge Based dc-dc Converter considering transformer parasitic elements in discontinuous current mode

摘要

In high-voltage applications, due to the use of high-ratio step-up transformers, the value of parasitic capacitance of these transformers is large compared to the low-voltage transformers. Moreover In these applications it is prefered to use single-capacitor filters instead of filters with inductors. In this paper a simple electrical model for two-winding high frequency transformer considering all of the parasitic elements is presented. This model is used in a full-bridge based dc-dc converter with capacitive output filter controlled by phase-shifted method. The operation of this converter in DCM is analysed and its analytical relations in different time intervals is derived and confirmed by simulation and experimental results.
