Electrical power systems in future uninterruptible power supplies or electrical vehicles may
employ hybrid energy sources, such as fuel cells and supercapacitors. It will be necessary to …

To have a systematic synthesis and galvanic isolation, it is common to use a full-bridge
bidirectional DC-DC converter which is sometimes called dual active bridge. A comparative …

Presently, there is an immense impetus in the automotive industry to develop plug-in electric
vehicles (PIEVs) to reverse the ever increasing green house gas emissions from fossil fuels …

The magnetic shunt is generally inserted in a planar transformer to increase the leakage
inductance, which can be utilized as the series inductor in resonant circuits such as the LLC …

Compared with conventional power factor correction topologies, although dual-converter
cell-based bridgeless topologies usually have higher efficiency, most of them suffer from …

Transformer parasitics such as leakage inductance and self-capacitance are rarely
calculated in advance during the design phase, because of the complexity and huge …

This study presents single‐input double‐output unidirectional and bidirectional dc–dc buck
converters, for applications that demand two dc‐controlled output voltages. The proposed …

In this study, a new two-input isolated boost dc–dc converter based on a distributed multi-
transformer structure, which is suitable for hybrid renewable energy systems is investigated …

A highly efficient planar integrated magnetic (PIM) design approach for primary–parallel
isolated boost converters is presented. All magnetic components in the converter, including …
