Abstract

Novel three-level DC-DC converters researched, which are new kind of three-level DC-DC converters applied to middle or small power conversion, and utilize bi-directional switch modules to provide the middle electric level to decrease the harmonic content in output waveform. The configuration and operational principles of the novel converters are discussed. Comparisons between these new converters and traditional full bridge DC-DC converters are performed, and the results show that the weight and volume of passive component in the investigated converters are much smaller than those in conventional full bridge DC-DC converters. Experiments are done to confirm their working principles.
