Interleaved Totem-Pole ZVS Converter Operating in CCM for Single-Stage Bidirectional AC–DC Conversion With High-Frequency Isolation

摘要

In this article, a new bidirectional single-stage interleaved totem-pole electrolytic capacitorless ac–dc converter with high-frequency isolation and low components count is proposed. The proposed converter is constructed using nonregulating two-phase interleaved totem-pole converter switched with a fixed 50% duty on the grid side and a full-bridge on the dc-side for active power and dc output regulation. This switching method results in a ripple-free grid current regardless of the magnitude of the input inductances. Consequently, a proper design of input inductance secures soft switching for all switches under wide voltage and load ranges without an auxiliary circuit or resonant tank. Hence, the proposed topology overcomes the reverse recovery issue, thereby enabling the use of Si devices in CCM. Moreover, the current spike around the ac main zero-crossing is avoided in the CCM operation due to small rectified voltage around zero-crossing. Furthermore, the instantaneous powers at the grid side and dc-side are identical since the proposed topology is electrolytic capacitorless with inherent second harmonic ripple current at the dc-side. PFC is inherently performed in the proposed converter without a current shaping control loop, and the phase-shift angle is the only control variable. Hence, the control system is simple and reliable. A 3.3 kW prototype of the proposed converter is built and tested in order to verify the performance and the theoretical claims.
