Wolfpack Reference Design: 50 KW Bi-Directional Charger
Three stage power bidirectional architecture focuses on simplification of control while maintaining high system efficiency using interleaving, resonant conversion, and zero-voltage switching/zero-current switching (ZVS/ZCS).
Interleaved front end enables high switching frequency (100 kHz) to reduce filter size.
Isolated Series-Resonant Converter simplifies control and enables full ZVS/ZCS over the entire operating range. Elimination of switching loss enables >98% efficiency with very simple control.
Interleaved bi-directional Buck/Boost converter utilizes boundary conduction mode (BCM) to eliminate turn-on and reverse recover loss. This allows >99% efficiency at 100 kHz switching frequency enabling minimization of inductor and capacitor size.
