A power efficiency improvement technique for a bi-directional dual active bridge DC-DC converter at light load

Abstract: Abstract-Recently, the bi-directional dc-dc converter has been focused on because of the huge demand for diversification of power supply network including battery. The dual active bridge (DAB) dc-dc converter is one of the most popular circuits for bi-directional applications because of its simple structure. However, power efficiency at light load is the intrinsic problem of a bi-directional DAB DC-DC converter. In this paper, the simple solution with digital operation for the problem is proposed and experimen… Show more
