A New Kind of Asymmetric DC-DC Converter for Vehicle

Abstract:

This paper presents the design of a new bi-directional DC-DC converter topology, which solves the problem that the IGBT current stress. The DC-DC converter uses soft-switching technology. By adopting the suggested method, the voltage stress and the switching loss of the IGBT can be reduced considerably. Moreover, the topology is very simple, we can analyze and build the topology electric circuit very easily. Finally, this paper uses Simulink module of Matlab software to simulate the process, and shows the experimental result. And the result shows us the DC-DC converter has great efficiency.
