Abstract
To develop thermoelectric power conditioning systems that are highly efficient over a wide range of input voltages and support medium-rated power, this paper introduces a hybrid resonant dc/dc converter using an active voltage-doubler rectifier. When the input voltage is higher than the preset nominal input voltage, the converter operates in the phase-shift full-bridge series-resonant converter mode, in which it achieves high efficiency by softly switching the primary-side switches and reducing the conduction loss. When the input voltage is lower than the nominal one, it operates in the resonant boost mode that boosts the resonant inductor current. By using the active voltage-doubler rectifier on the secondary side of the converter, we can build the converter with less number of active components. As a result, the proposed converter achieves, at low cost, high boost-ratio and high efficiency over a wide range of input voltages. A detailed analysis of the converter operation is presented along with the design procedure. At 35-55V, a 600-W/360-V prototype of the proposed converter has been built and tested to demonstrate its effectiveness.
