Abstract

A topology for an isolated, bi-directional, DC-DC converter, that provides step-up and step-down functionality, with a reduced transformer turns ratio, allows a simplified transformer design with reduced cost and increased efficiency. This topology also has a very small level of re-circulating current, relative to other topologies regarding cost and performance.
